Monkerton market report EX1, Exeter
The standing EX1 (Monkerton) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. The raw material for this page is 14,429 HM Land Registry entries for EX1 (Exeter), going back to 1995: each an actual purchase at an actual price. Rents come from the ONS. Valuations, estimates and asking prices appear nowhere in it.
Sales data to July 2026. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.
In short: 162 registered 2026 sales put the EX1 (Exeter) median at £337,500, up 15% on five years earlier, with a mean of £350,100, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £3,660 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 14,429 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
EX1 is the postcode district covering Exeter (east), Heavitree (north), Monkerton in Exeter. Districts are a practical way to slice a market: small enough to mean something locally, big enough to have a steady flow of sales to measure.

In cash terms the typical EX1 home went from £55,000 in 1995 to £337,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 182%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 13% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the EX1 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 2002 (+35.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−6.6%). 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 terraced homes dominate the record here, 42% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £442,500 against £185,500 for a flat, 2.4 times the price.

The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +5.5% | +3.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.8% | −1.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.4% | 0.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.6% | +0.8% |
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 year-by-year sales count
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 monthly pulse, last five years
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
The register shows 360 EX1 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 475 sales a year recently, against 474 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 tenants pay around EX1
For renting purposes EX1 sits in Exeter. The ONS average private rent there is £1,314 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £912 a month here against £1,917 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Exeter
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £337,500 median purchase price, a rent of £1,314 a month (£15,768 a year) works out at a 4.7% 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.

Where do EX1 prices go next?
That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is up 15% over five years in cash but down 9% after inflation. Weigh the volume chart alongside the price one before deciding anything, and bear in mind every figure is a completed sale that reached the register weeks after completion.
EX1's current homes for sale

The price of an extra bedroom in EX
What homes of each size actually sold for across the EX area, 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 | — | £320,000 | £425,000 (+33%) | £635,000 (+49%) | £840,000 (+32%) |
| Semi-detached | £230,000 | £275,000 (+20%) | £335,000 (+22%) | £430,000 (+28%) | £569,000 (+32%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.

These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
