A postcode sector like DT11 8 is a single group of streets within DT11 (Blandford Forum), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

What a home in DT11 8 sells for

The DT11 8 median stands at £401,200 for 2026, built from 26 registered sales; the mean, the figure usually quoted as the "average house price", is £459,400, somewhat above it, as happens wherever a market carries an expensive tail.

Price per square metre in DT11 8

Measured by floor area, the last five years of DT11 8 sales average about £4,070 per square metre. Price per square metre is the fair way to compare a one-bed flat with a four-bed house, and it comes from the Energy Performance Certificate on each sold home.

Set against the £285,000 England and Wales median, DT11 8 sits 41% above the national market.

In cash terms the typical DT11 8 home went from £80,000 in 1995 to £401,200 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 131%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 32% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.

The strongest year on record here is 2007 (+32.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−24.2%). 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

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.

Transaction volumes

The register shows 26 DT11 8 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 102 sales a year before the financial crisis and 67 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.

What kind of market DT11 8 is

Only 26 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes DT11 8 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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. Within DT11, this sector trades 18% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

Rents around DT11 8

DT11 8 falls under Dorset, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,041 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £721 a month here against £1,661 for four or more bedrooms.

£1,041 a month is £12,492 a year, which against the £401,200 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.1%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

Will DT11 8 prices rise from here?

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.
