How Wells Avenue, Honiton prices moved
The chart tracks the median Wells Avenue, Honiton house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1997 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.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 1 | £49,000 | £108,803 |
| 2000s | 4 | £118,500 | £215,872 |
| 2010s | 2 | £162,000 | £228,420 |
| 2020s | 1 | £236,500 | £241,641 |
The highest yearly median on record for Wells Avenue, Honiton is £236,500 in 2021; the lowest is £49,000 in 1997. Across the full 25-year record the cash median has moved from £49,000 to £236,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £103,895, so the real change over the whole record is +187.6% — about +4.50% 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: +23.8% in cash against -10.0% 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. Wells Avenue, Honiton 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Semi-detached | 58 | 63.0% | £165,000 | £36,500 – £347,500 |

| Terraced | 13 | 14.1% | £160,000 | £37,500 – £270,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Wells Avenue, Honiton
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 92 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 | 92 | 100.0% | £162,500 |
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.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across East Devon, 43.8% of 81,511 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 7.1% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in East Devon at £970 a month as of Jun 2026 — £686 for a one-bedroom home and £1,123 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £162,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 7.16% 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 EX14, 13 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 5 violent, 0 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 7 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 12.8 times quieter.
Against the 150,828 residents the 2021 census counted in East Devon, that is 0.09 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.

Within Honiton the street ranks 184 of 311 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £168,000 (-3.3%).

Wells Avenue, Honiton sits in East Devon, in the South West.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in East Devon at 8.3 times median local earnings of £40,224 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 Wells Avenue, Honiton?
The median price paid in Wells Avenue, Honiton 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 Wells Avenue, Honiton?
92 sales are on record for Wells Avenue, Honiton, the most recent completing on 30 Apr 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

In cash, the median rose +23.8% between 2007 and 2021. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -10.0%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Wells Avenue, Honiton house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £236,500, 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 Wells Avenue, Honiton?
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 30 Apr 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.
