In short: the middle 2026 sale in EX2 6 (Exeter) came in at £408,200, out of 26 registered, up 18% on five years earlier, and the mean stands at £428,300, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £3,760 per square metre over the last five years. The record behind it is 2,307 completed sales lodged with HM Land Registry since 1995, monthly refreshed, with no valuations or asking prices anywhere in the figures.

A postcode sector like EX2 6 is a single group of streets within EX2 (Exeter), 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 EX2 6 sells for

The 2026 median for EX2 6 is £408,200, taken from 26 registered sales. The mean, which is what most sites call the "average house price", is £428,300, practically level with it: prices here bunch tightly around the middle.

EX2 6 prices by floor area

The last five years of sales put EX2 6 at roughly £3,760 per square metre. That figure, built from each sale's Energy Performance Certificate floor area, is the one that makes a small flat and a big house comparable.

For scale: the England and Wales median is £285,000, so EX2 6 trades 43% above the country as a whole.

In cash terms the typical EX2 6 home went from £46,500 in 1995 to £408,200 in 2026, roughly 9 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 304%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2016. The market now sits about 14% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

The strongest year on record here is 2020 (+89.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2019 (−45.6%). 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.

Sales activity in EX2 6

Over the last twelve months of data, 26 sales completed in EX2 6. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 83 sales a year before the financial crisis and 60 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 EX2 6

EX2 6 falls under Exeter, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,314 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £912 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,917 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.

Set against the £408,200 median sold price, £1,314 a month is £15,768 a year, a gross yield of 3.9%: 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.

The shape of the EX2 6 market

This is a thin market: 26 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. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Against the EX2 district median, EX2 6 sits 34% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.

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.
