Crediton market report EX17
The standing EX17 (Crediton) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 10,368 sales registered with HM Land Registry in EX17 (Crediton) since 1995, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Covers registered sales to July 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.
In short: the 2026 median for EX17 (Crediton) is £303,800, from 84 registered sales, up 9% on five years earlier; the mean is £326,600, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £3,200 per square metre over the last five years. Behind the figures sit 10,368 HM Land Registry entries going back to 1995, refreshed monthly, every one a completed sale rather than a valuation or an asking price.
The postcode district EX17 covering Crediton sits in Crediton. A district is the workhorse unit for reading a market: local enough to be meaningful, busy enough that the medians rest on a steady flow of sales.

In cash terms the typical EX17 home went from £56,000 in 1995 to £303,800 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 150%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 16% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the EX17 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 (+27.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−9.6%). 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 detached houses dominate the record here, 41% of the typed total. In 2025, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £408,800 against £157,500 for a flat, 2.6 times the price.

What EX17 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +6.6% | +4.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.6% | −3.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.0% | −0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.8% | 0.0% |
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.
Sales activity in EX17
Sales per year, counted
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.
The last five years, month by month
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
Over the last twelve months of data, 190 sales completed in EX17. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 390 sales a year before the financial crisis and 228 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 rental side of EX17
The local authority for EX17 is Mid Devon, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £873 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £637 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,446, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Mid Devon
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £303,800 median sold price, £873 a month is £10,476 a year, a gross yield of 3.4%: 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.

Moving up a bedroom in EX: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the EX 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 | — | £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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
