In cash terms the typical BA22 home went from £60,000 in 1995 to £290,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 122%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2007, and today's median remains roughly 24% under it: a 2007 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the BA22 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+27.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2020 (−8.4%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 43% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £425,000 against £123,000 for a flat, 3.5 times the price.

The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year (since 2025) | −1.5% | −3.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.3% | −4.9% |
| 6 years (since 2020) | +2.5% | −1.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.8% | −0.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.9% | −0.9% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Sales activity in BA22
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Month by month, five years back
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
Over the last twelve months of data, 236 sales completed in BA22. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 287 sales a year recently, against 340 a year before 2008. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
What homes rent for around BA22
For renting purposes BA22 sits in Somerset. The ONS average private rent there is £990 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £674 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,580 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Somerset
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £290,000 median purchase price, a rent of £990 a month (£11,880 a year) works out at a 4.1% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.

The BA22 sales calendar
Take the 1,748 BA22 sales dated 2021 to 2025 and sort them by month: March completions lead with 11.3% of the total, January trails with 5.3%. That is a marked seasonal rhythm. A sale completes weeks after it is agreed, so the busy month reflects deals struck earlier in the year; a seller who wants competition should be on the market ahead of it.

| January | 93 | 5.3% |

What another bedroom costs in BA
Real sold prices by size across the BA area, straight from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | £285,000 | £310,000 (+9%) | £357,500 (+15%) | £460,000 (+29%) | £645,000 (+40%) |
| Semi-detached | £230,000 | £254,497 (+11%) | £283,560 (+11%) | £350,000 (+23%) | £425,000 (+21%) |
| Terraced | £180,000 | £227,500 (+26%) | £275,750 (+21%) | £382,662 (+39%) | £550,000 (+44%) |
| Flat | £138,000 | £187,819 (+36%) | £307,250 (+64%) | £450,000 (+46%) | £595,000 (+32%) |
Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.

About the numbers: everything is computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to the address; today's-money figures use the ONS CPIH index, and rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents by local authority. These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
