In cash terms the typical TA5 2 home went from £72,500 in 1995 to £291,200 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 85%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2007. The market now sits about 27% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the TA5 2 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 (+31.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−22.8%). 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) | +2.2% | −0.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.7% | −3.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.4% | −1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.8% | −1.0% |
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
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
TA5 2 recorded 48 sales in the last twelve months of data. Unusually, activity here runs above its pre-2008 level: 114 sales a year over the last five years against 80 before the financial crisis. 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.
What tenants pay around TA5 2
For renting purposes TA5 2 sits in Somerset. The ONS average private rent there is £990 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £674 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,580, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
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 £291,200 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.1%. 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.
Reading the TA5 2 market
Only 48 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes TA5 2 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. Against the TA5 district median, TA5 2 sits 15% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.

What another bedroom costs in TA
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the TA 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.
