How Lagoon View, Barnstaple prices moved

The chart tracks the median Lagoon View, Barnstaple house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 2021. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Lagoon View, Barnstaple is £322,500 in 2021; the lowest is £63,500 in 1996. Across the full 26-year record the cash median has moved from £63,500 to £322,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £137,746, so the real change over the whole record is +195.8% — about +4.43% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.

Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +61.3% in cash against +14.5% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

Homes that sold twice

These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Lagoon View, Barnstaple values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Lagoon View, Barnstaple is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in Lagoon View, Barnstaple

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 125 freehold — 0.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.

A further 3 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in North Devon at £843 a month as of Jun 2026 — £587 for a one-bedroom home and £961 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £189,950 here, that rent is a gross yield of 5.33% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of EX31, 209 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 68 violent, 2 burglary, 5 vehicle-related and 36 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.3 times busier.

Against the 98,611 residents the 2021 census counted in North Devon, that is 2.12 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.

A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.

Section 08

The neighbourhood around Lagoon View, Barnstaple

The 2021 census counted 98,611 residents in North Devon across 43,198 households. 68.4% of those households own their home and 31.5% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.

13 state and independent schools have a EX31 postcode: 12 primary, 1 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

Within Barnstaple the street ranks 328 of 717 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £168,000 (+13.1%).

The full range on record runs from £53,000 to £510,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

Lagoon View, Barnstaple sits in North Devon, in the South West.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in North Devon at 9.2 times median local earnings of £32,199 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Lagoon View, Barnstaple?

The median price paid in Lagoon View, Barnstaple across every sale on the register is £189,950. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.

How many homes have sold in Lagoon View, Barnstaple?

125 sales are on record for Lagoon View, Barnstaple, the most recent completing on 2 Apr 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Lagoon View, Barnstaple house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +61.3% between 2006 and 2021. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +14.5%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Lagoon View, Barnstaple house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £322,500, set in 2021. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

What is the price per square metre in Lagoon View, Barnstaple?

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 2 Apr 2026. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
