In cash terms the typical EX9 home went from £85,200 in 1995 to £380,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 105%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2023. The market now sits about 25% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the EX9 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 (+46.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−15.9%). 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, 35% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £725,000 against £227,500 for a flat, 3.2 times the price.

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.
The turnover behind the prices
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Month by month, five years back
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
Over the last twelve months of data, 89 sales completed in EX9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 194 sales a year before the financial crisis and 108 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.
How EX9 trades
Only 89 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes EX9 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. EX9 sits 4 of 33 in its area's price order, well inside the expensive end.
What tenants pay around EX9
The local authority for EX9 is East Devon, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £973 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £688 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,624 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, East Devon
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £380,000 median purchase price, a rent of £973 a month (£11,676 a year) works out at a 3.1% 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.

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. 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%) |

| Flat | £145,000 | £222,000 (+53%) | £325,000 (+46%) | £458,250 (+41%) | — |
Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
