How Highfield, Crediton prices moved
The chart tracks the median Highfield, Crediton house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 2011. 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 | 1 | £50,000 | £111,024 |
| 2000s | 3 | £172,500 | £314,244 |
| 2010s | 1 | £173,000 | £243,930 |
The highest yearly median on record for Highfield, Crediton is £175,750 in 2007; the lowest is £50,000 in 1996. Across the full 16-year record the cash median has moved from £50,000 to £173,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £108,462, so the real change over the whole record is +144.5% — about +6.14% 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: +246.0% in cash against +144.5% 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.

The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

Homes that sold twice

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Highfield, Crediton
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 82 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.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 82 | 100.0% | £162,500 |
Section 09
How Highfield, Crediton compares

Within Crediton the street ranks 165 of 280 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £179,000 (-9.2%).

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Highfield, Crediton?
The median price paid in Highfield, Crediton across every sale on the register is £162,500. 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 Highfield, Crediton?
82 sales are on record for Highfield, Crediton, the most recent completing on 27 Oct 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
Have Highfield, Crediton house prices actually risen?
In cash, the median rose +246.0% between 1996 and 2011. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +144.5%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Highfield, Crediton house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £175,750, set in 2007. 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 Highfield, Crediton?
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 27 Oct 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.
