How Hillington, Ilfracombe prices moved
The chart tracks the median Hillington, Ilfracombe house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1997 to 2024. 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 | £49,475 | £109,858 |
| 2000s | 5 | £82,000 | £149,380 |
| 2010s | 4 | £160,000 | £225,600 |
| 2020s | 2 | £244,000 | £249,304 |
The highest yearly median on record for Hillington, Ilfracombe is £260,000 in 2021; the lowest is £49,475 in 1997. Across the full 28-year record the cash median has moved from £49,475 to £244,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £104,902, so the real change over the whole record is +144.7% — about +3.37% 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: +52.5% in cash against +0.5% 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.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Hillington, Ilfracombe?
The median price paid in Hillington, Ilfracombe across every sale on the register is £133,000. 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 Hillington, Ilfracombe?
123 sales are on record for Hillington, Ilfracombe, the most recent completing on 24 Apr 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
Have Hillington, Ilfracombe house prices actually risen?
In cash, the median rose +52.5% between 2010 and 2024. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +0.5%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Hillington, Ilfracombe house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £260,000, 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 Hillington, Ilfracombe?
£2,057 per square metre, from the 22 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 24 Apr 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.
