In cash terms the typical BA4 6 home went from £65,000 in 1995 to £368,800 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 161%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 25% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the BA4 6 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 2010 (+32.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−27.6%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +1.0% | −1.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.6% | −2.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.8% | +0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.7% | −0.1% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
How many homes change hands in BA4 6
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
BA4 6 recorded 26 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 82 sales a year before the financial crisis and 51 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
Rents around BA4 6
BA4 6 falls under Somerset, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £990 a month (May 2026 figures). 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.
Set against the £368,800 median sold price, £990 a month is £11,880 a year, a gross yield of 3.2%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.
Reading the BA4 6 market
Only 26 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes BA4 6 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Against the BA4 district median, BA4 6 sits 29% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.

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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £320,000 | £425,000 (+33%) | £650,000 (+53%) | £965,000 (+48%) |
