Nothing is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.

In cash terms the typical TA12 6 home went from £52,500 in 1995 to £272,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 139%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2020. The market now sits about 19% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the TA12 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 2000 (+32.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2013 (−22.3%). 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
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −1.0% | −3.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.9% | −3.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.4% | 0.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.4% | −0.4% |
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.
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 32 sales completed in TA12 6. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 141 sales a year before the financial crisis and 88 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
What homes rent for around TA12 6
For renting purposes TA12 6 sits in Somerset. The ONS average private rent there is £990 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £674 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,580 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Somerset
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £272,500 median sold price, £990 a month is £11,880 a year, a gross yield of 4.4%: 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.
The shape of the TA12 6 market
Only 32 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes TA12 6 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

What another bedroom costs in TA
Real sold prices by size across the TA area, straight from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.

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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
