How Devonshire Street, Bridgwater prices moved

The chart tracks the median Devonshire Street, Bridgwater house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2020. 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 Devonshire Street, Bridgwater is £155,000 in 2020; the lowest is £24,125 in 1995. Across the full 26-year record the cash median has moved from £24,125 to £155,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £53,569, so the real change over the whole record is +274.6% — about +5.43% 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: +24.0% in cash against -7.6% 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.

Ownership and new build in Devonshire Street, Bridgwater

86 of the sales on record are leasehold and 56 freehold — 60.6% 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 £81,000 and the median freehold sale £89,500 — a gap of +10.5%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

A further 11 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 Somerset at £1,000 a month as of Jun 2026 — £680 for a one-bedroom home and £1,117 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £85,750 here, that rent is a gross yield of 13.99% 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 TA6, 552 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 207 violent, 12 burglary, 9 vehicle-related and 105 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 3.3 times busier.

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.

Within Bridgwater the street ranks 1036 of 1122 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £147,500 (-41.9%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,165 per square metre, across 50 of the 142 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

Devonshire Street, Bridgwater sits in Somerset, in the South West.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Somerset at 8.0 times median local earnings of £35,440 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Devonshire Street, Bridgwater?

The median price paid in Devonshire Street, Bridgwater across every sale on the register is £85,750. 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 Devonshire Street, Bridgwater?

142 sales are on record for Devonshire Street, Bridgwater, the most recent completing on 15 Dec 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Devonshire Street, Bridgwater house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +24.0% between 2007 and 2020. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -7.6%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Devonshire Street, Bridgwater house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £155,000, set in 2020. 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 Devonshire Street, Bridgwater?

£1,165 per square metre, from the 50 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 15 Dec 2025. 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.
