In cash terms the typical EX22 6 home went from £49,500 in 1995 to £260,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 142%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2007, and today's median remains roughly 25% under it: a 2007 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the EX22 6 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 2003 (+35.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2015 (−13.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year (since 2025) | −7.1% | −9.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.8% | −5.4% |
| 6 years (since 2020) | +2.1% | −2.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.4% | 0.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.6% | −1.2% |
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
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 register shows 43 EX22 6 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 118 sales a year before the financial crisis and 79 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.
Reading the EX22 6 market
Only 43 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes EX22 6 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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 EX22 district median, EX22 6 sits 10% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
Rents around EX22 6
The local authority for EX22 6 is Torridge, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £787 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £564 a month here against £1,267 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Torridge
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £260,000 median sold price, £787 a month is £9,444 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.

How much did a house sell for in EX22 6 (Holsworthy)?
Are property prices falling in EX22 6 (Holsworthy)?
Is EX22 6 (Holsworthy) a good place to buy a house?
What happens to EX22 6 prices now?
That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is down 4% over five years in cash but down 24% 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.
The price of an extra bedroom in EX
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the EX area. 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 | £290,000 | £325,000 (+12%) | £375,000 (+15%) | £470,000 (+25%) | £625,000 (+33%) |
| Semi-detached | £205,500 | £250,000 (+22%) | £295,000 (+18%) | £367,000 (+24%) | £450,000 (+23%) |
| Terraced | £171,500 | £220,000 (+28%) | £256,000 (+16%) | £300,000 (+17%) | £365,000 (+22%) |
| Flat | £134,000 | £180,000 (+34%) | £270,000 (+50%) | £305,250 (+13%) | £437,500 (+43%) |
Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. 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.
