Section 06
Ownership and new build in Retreat Road, Exeter
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 66 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.

|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 66 | 100.0% | £259,500 |

Within Exeter the street ranks 615 of 2088 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £184,000 (+41.0%).

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Retreat Road, Exeter?
The median price paid in Retreat Road, Exeter across every sale on the register is £259,500. 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 Retreat Road, Exeter?

In cash, the median rose +10.9% between 2006 and 2012. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -7.0%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Retreat Road, Exeter house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £277,250, set in 2012. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 25 Jul 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.
