How Lark Rise, Sidmouth prices moved

The chart tracks the median Lark Rise, Sidmouth house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2006 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.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Lark Rise, Sidmouth is £292,500 in 2016; the lowest is £249,500 in 2006. Across the full 11-year record the cash median has moved from £249,500 to £292,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £444,186, so the real change over the whole record is -8.1% — about -0.84% 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: +17.2% in cash against -8.1% 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 Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in East Devon at £970 a month as of Jun 2026 — £686 for a one-bedroom home and £1,123 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £265,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 4.39% 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.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of EX10, 33 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 12 violent, 0 burglary, 6 vehicle-related and 2 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 5.1 times quieter.

Against the 150,828 residents the 2021 census counted in East Devon, that is 0.22 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.

A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Lark Rise, Sidmouth?

The median price paid in Lark Rise, Sidmouth across every sale on the register is £265,000. 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 Lark Rise, Sidmouth?

76 sales are on record for Lark Rise, Sidmouth, the most recent completing on 27 Apr 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Lark Rise, Sidmouth house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +17.2% between 2006 and 2016. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -8.1%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Lark Rise, Sidmouth house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £292,500, set in 2016. 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 Lark Rise, Sidmouth?

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 27 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.
