How Martlet Road, Minehead prices moved
The chart tracks the median Martlet Road, Minehead house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1998 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 | £82,000 | £182,079 |
| 2000s | 2 | £222,546 | £405,413 |
| 2020s | 1 | £285,000 | £291,196 |
The highest yearly median on record for Martlet Road, Minehead is £285,000 in 2021; the lowest is £82,000 in 1998. Across the full 24-year record the cash median has moved from £82,000 to £285,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £170,029, so the real change over the whole record is +111.8% — about +3.32% 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: +23.9% 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.

The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Martlet Road, Minehead 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flat or maisonette | 47 | 63.5% | £230,000 | £44,000 – £305,000 |
| Semi-detached | 14 | 18.9% | £145,000 | £55,000 – £430,000 |
| Detached | 11 | 14.9% | £250,000 | £82,000 – £700,000 |
| Terraced | 2 | 2.7% | £250,000 | £250,000 – £494,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Martlet Road, Minehead
49 of the sales on record are leasehold and 25 freehold — 66.2% 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.
The median leasehold sale is £228,000 and the median freehold sale £235,000 — a gap of +3.1%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 49 | 66.2% | £228,000 |
| Freehold | 25 | 33.8% | £235,000 |
| New build | 11 | 14.9% | £227,505 |
| Existing home | 63 | 85.1% | £230,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -1.1%. 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.

Living in Martlet Road, Minehead
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Somerset, 45.0% of 296,416 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.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 2,239 | 0.8% |
| B | 39,014 | 13.2% |
| C | 92,251 | 31.1% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Somerset at £1,000 a month as of Jun 2026 — £680 for a one-bedroom home and £1,117 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £229,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 5.24% 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.

Within Minehead the street ranks 81 of 303 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £169,000 (+35.5%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,437 per square metre, across 5 of the 74 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

Martlet Road, Minehead sits in Somerset, in the South West.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Somerset at 8.0 times median local earnings of £35,440 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Martlet Road, Minehead?
The median price paid in Martlet Road, Minehead across every sale on the register is £229,000. 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 Martlet Road, Minehead?
74 sales are on record for Martlet Road, Minehead, the most recent completing on 21 Feb 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

When were Martlet Road, Minehead house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £285,000, 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 Martlet Road, Minehead?
£1,437 per square metre, from the 5 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 21 Feb 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.
