In cash terms the typical BS23 home went from £42,000 in 1995 to £215,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 135%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2021, and today's median remains roughly 15% under it: a 2021 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the BS23 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 2004 (+29.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2025 (−8.3%). 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 flats dominate the record here, 52% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £462,000 against £169,500 for a flat, 2.7 times the price.

The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +7.5% | +5.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.5% | −3.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.7% | +0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.3% | −0.5% |
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 BS23
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
The last five years, month by month
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
Over the last twelve months of data, 482 sales completed in BS23. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 1,026 sales a year before the financial crisis and 523 a year over the last five. 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.
The shape of the BS23 market
By median price BS23 sits at the bottom of its postcode area: the cheapest way in, with the least expectation already in the price.
What tenants pay around BS23
For renting purposes BS23 sits in North Somerset. The ONS average private rent there is £1,197 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £812 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,830, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

The price of an extra bedroom in BS
What homes of each size actually sold for across the BS area, from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £360,000 | £480,000 (+33%) | £710,000 (+48%) | £960,000 (+35%) |
| Semi-detached | £267,000 | £310,000 (+16%) | £372,000 (+20%) | £500,000 (+34%) | £857,110 (+71%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
