In cash terms the typical EX18 home went from £75,000 in 1995 to £295,000 in 2026, roughly 3.9 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 81%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 30% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the EX18 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 (+54.2% on the year before); the weakest, 1996 (−15.7%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What EX18 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −2.2% | −4.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.2% | −5.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.3% | −1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.9% | −0.9% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 53% of the typed total. In 2005, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £247,500 against £127,000 for a flat, 1.9 times the price.

The turnover behind the prices
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The monthly pulse, last five years
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
The register shows 42 EX18 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 65 sales a year before the financial crisis and 42 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.
The rental side of EX18
For renting purposes EX18 sits in Mid Devon. The ONS average private rent there is £873 a month (May 2026). 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 £295,000 median sold price, £873 a month is £10,476 a year, a gross yield of 3.6%: 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.
Reading the EX18 market
Only 42 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes EX18 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.

Are property prices falling in EX18 (Chulmleigh)?
Is EX18 (Chulmleigh) a good place to buy a house?

That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is down 6% over five years in cash but down 26% after inflation.

What another bedroom costs in EX
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the EX area. 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%) |
| Terraced | £203,000 | £245,000 (+21%) | £280,000 (+14%) | £350,000 (+25%) | £475,000 (+36%) |

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.
