What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Upton Lane, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 42 | 87.5% | £420,000 | £81,500 – £1,350,000 |
| Semi-detached | 6 | 12.5% | £415,000 | £225,000 – £607,500 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Upton Lane, Ilminster
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 48 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 | 48 | 100.0% | £420,000 |
| New build | 1 | 2.1% | £131,000 |
| Existing home | 47 | 97.9% | £420,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -68.8%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.
Section 09
How Upton Lane, Ilminster compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Upton Lane, Ilminster sits above that national figure — +166.7%.
Within Ilminster the street ranks 9 of 189 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £183,000 (+129.5%).
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 £81,500 to £1,350,000. 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 Upton Lane, Ilminster?
The median price paid in Upton Lane, Ilminster across every sale on the register is £420,000. 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 Upton Lane, Ilminster?
48 sales are on record for Upton Lane, Ilminster, the most recent completing on 8 May 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

In cash, the median rose +41.7% between 2014 and 2021. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +24.8%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Upton Lane, Ilminster house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £595,000, 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.

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 8 May 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.
