TA2 7 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside TA2 (Taunton). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical TA2 7 home went from £50,000 in 1995 to £247,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 128%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2007. The market now sits about 9% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the TA2 7 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 (+29.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−12.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +3.1% | +0.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.4% | −0.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.8% | +1.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.1% | +0.3% |
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.
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.
TA2 7 recorded 54 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 206 sales a year before the financial crisis and 105 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.
The rental side of TA2 7
TA2 7 falls under Somerset, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £990 a month (May 2026 figures). 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.
£990 a month is £11,880 a year, which against the £247,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.8%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.
How TA2 7 trades
This is a thin market: 54 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. Within TA2, this sector trades 10% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

What another bedroom costs in TA
Real sold prices by size across the TA area, straight from the Land Registry record. 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £300,000 | £390,000 (+30%) | £570,000 (+46%) | £775,000 (+36%) |
