How Temple Street, Sidmouth prices moved

The chart tracks the median Temple Street, Sidmouth house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2024. 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 Temple Street, Sidmouth is £334,750 in 2023; the lowest is £37,500 in 1995. Across the full 30-year record the cash median has moved from £37,500 to £280,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £83,268, so the real change over the whole record is +254.5% — about +4.46% 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: +51.6% in cash against +11.2% 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.

Homes that sold twice

These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Temple Street, Sidmouth values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Temple Street, Sidmouth is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Section 06

Ownership and new build in Temple Street, Sidmouth

19 of the sales on record are leasehold and 194 freehold — 8.9% 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 £120,000 and the median freehold sale £165,000 — a gap of +37.5%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

New build20.9%£225,000
Existing home21199.1%£158,000
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +42.4%. 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.

A further 8 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.

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 £160,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 7.27% 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.

How Temple Street, Sidmouth compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Temple Street, Sidmouth sits above that national figure — +1.6%.

Within Sidmouth the street ranks 296 of 334 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £240,000 (-33.3%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,754 per square metre, across 57 of the 213 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

The full range on record runs from £17,000 to £445,000. 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.

Temple Street, Sidmouth sits in East Devon, in the South West.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in East Devon at 8.3 times median local earnings of £40,224 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 Temple Street, Sidmouth?

The median price paid in Temple Street, Sidmouth across every sale on the register is £160,000. 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 Temple Street, Sidmouth?

213 sales are on record for Temple Street, Sidmouth, the most recent completing on 5 Feb 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Temple Street, Sidmouth house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +51.6% between 2014 and 2024. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +11.2%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Temple Street, Sidmouth house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £334,750, set in 2023. 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 Temple Street, Sidmouth?

£1,754 per square metre, from the 57 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.

The latest sale shown here completed on 5 Feb 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.
