How Lime Close, Minehead prices moved
The chart tracks the median Lime Close, Minehead house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 2016. 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 | £40,000 | £88,819 |
| 2000s | 3 | £102,500 | £186,725 |
| 2010s | 2 | £137,500 | £193,875 |
The highest yearly median on record for Lime Close, Minehead is £145,000 in 2007; the lowest is £40,000 in 1996. Across the full 21-year record the cash median has moved from £40,000 to £145,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £86,769, so the real change over the whole record is +133.3% — about +4.33% 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: +41.5% in cash against +4.5% 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.

Against the median sale of £123,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 9.72% 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.
No street-level crime was published for TA24 in Jun 2026. Several forces do not supply street-level data to police.uk, so this is a gap in the source rather than a crime-free month — and printing a zero would say something the data does not.
