Nothing is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Sales data to 2026. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.
In short: 51 registered 2026 sales put the BS27 3 (Cheddar) median at £350,000, up 9% on five years earlier, with a mean of £361,700, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £3,570 per square metre over the last five years.

BS27 3 is one sector of BS27 (Cheddar): a handful of streets, and the most local view the sold record can give. The price of that locality is lumpier charts, because each year's median rests on fewer sales.

In cash terms the typical BS27 3 home went from £60,000 in 1995 to £350,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 168%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2023, and today's median remains roughly 19% under it: a 2023 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the BS27 3 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 1999 (+28.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−11.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −4.8% | −7.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.7% | −3.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.6% | +0.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.2% | −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.
The turnover behind the prices
How many homes change hands
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
Over the last twelve months of data, 51 sales completed in BS27 3. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 187 sales a year before the financial crisis and 126 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
What kind of market BS27 3 is
This is a thin market: 51 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching.
What tenants pay around BS27 3
For renting purposes BS27 3 sits in Somerset. The ONS average private rent there is £990 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £674 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,580, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Somerset
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £350,000 median purchase price, a rent of £990 a month (£11,880 a year) works out at a 3.4% 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 price of an extra bedroom in BS
Real sold prices by size across the BS area, straight 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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%) |
