How Nether Mead, Blandford Forum prices moved
The chart tracks the median Nether Mead, Blandford Forum house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 2006. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 2 | £63,500 | £141,000 |
| 2000s | 4 | £128,750 | £234,545 |
The highest yearly median on record for Nether Mead, Blandford Forum is £186,000 in 2006; the lowest is £63,500 in 1996. Across the full 11-year record the cash median has moved from £63,500 to £186,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £137,746, so the real change over the whole record is +140.4% — about +9.17% 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: +192.9% in cash against +140.4% 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.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Nether Mead, Blandford Forum is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 50 | 63.3% | £194,000 | £15,000 – £448,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Nether Mead, Blandford Forum
1 of the sales on record are leasehold and 78 freehold — 1.3% 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.
The median leasehold sale is £70,000 and the median freehold sale £168,750 — a gap of +141.1%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 1 | 1.3% | £70,000 |
| Freehold | 78 | 98.7% | £168,750 |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Dorset at £1,046 a month as of Jun 2026 — £724 for a one-bedroom home and £1,178 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £168,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 7.47% 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 DT11, 20 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 5 violent, 0 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 5 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 8.4 times quieter.
Against the 379,579 residents the 2021 census counted in Dorset, that is 0.05 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.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Dorset at 9.9 times median local earnings of £35,311 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data

When were Nether Mead, Blandford Forum house prices at their highest?

How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 2 Mar 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.
