North Petherton market report TA6 6, Bridgwater

The TA6 6 (North Petherton) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Underneath every chart here sit 6,579 registered sales in TA6 6 (Bridgwater) since 1995, the HM Land Registry record of what buyers really paid, with ONS figures covering rents. Nothing is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.

Covers registered sales to 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.

In short: the typical home in TA6 6 (Bridgwater) sold for £242,500 in 2026, the median of 59 registered sales, up 11% on five years earlier. The mean was £251,000, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,940 per square metre over the last five years. The figures cover 6,579 sales recorded by HM Land Registry since 1995 and refresh with each monthly release: completed sale prices, not valuations or asking prices.

TA6 6 is one sector of TA6 (Bridgwater): a handful of streets, and the most local view the sold record can give. The price of that locality is lumpier charts, because each year's median rests on fewer sales.

Today's TA6 6 prices, from the sold record

In the TA6 6 property market, the 2026 median sale price is £242,500, from 59 registered sales; the mean, the "average house price" most sites quote, is £251,000, sitting practically level with it: prices here bunch tightly around the middle.

Price per square metre in TA6 6

By floor space, homes in TA6 6 have sold for about £2,940 per square metre on average over the last five years: the like-for-like measure that lets you compare a small flat with a large house, from the Energy Performance Certificate floor areas behind each sale.

For scale: the England and Wales median is £285,000, so TA6 6 trades 15% below the country as a whole.

In cash terms the typical TA6 6 home went from £41,000 in 1995 to £242,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 172%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 20% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.

The strongest year on record here is 2002 (+27.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2024 (−10.9%). 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

Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.

Transaction volumes

The register shows 59 TA6 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 217 sales a year before the financial crisis and 172 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.

The rental side of TA6 6

For renting purposes TA6 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.

Set against the £242,500 median sold price, £990 a month is £11,880 a year, a gross yield of 4.9%: 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.

What kind of market TA6 6 is

Only 59 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes TA6 6 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.

About the numbers: everything is computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to the address; today's-money figures use the ONS CPIH index, and rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents by local authority. These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
