Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Middle Street, Ilminster 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 37 | 61.7% | £183,000 | £35,000 – £299,950 |
| Detached | 15 | 25.0% | £245,000 | £42,500 – £617,000 |
| Semi-detached | 8 | 13.3% | £65,700 | £51,000 – £240,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Middle Street, Ilminster
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 60 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 | 60 | 100.0% | £184,000 |
A further 2 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.
Section 09
How Middle Street, Ilminster compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Middle Street, Ilminster sits above that national figure — +16.8%.
Within Ilminster the street ranks 115 of 189 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £183,000 (+0.5%).
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.
The full range on record runs from £35,000 to £617,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Middle Street, Ilminster?
The median price paid in Middle Street, Ilminster across every sale on the register is £184,000. 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 Middle Street, Ilminster?
60 sales are on record for Middle Street, Ilminster, 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 Middle Street, Ilminster house prices actually risen?
In cash, the median rose +7.0% between 2007 and 2018. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -18.0%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Middle Street, Ilminster house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £230,000, set in 2018. 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 Middle Street, Ilminster?
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 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.
