How Hardys Road, Taunton prices moved
The chart tracks the median Hardys Road, Taunton house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2013 to 2025. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2010s | 7 | £205,000 | £289,050 |
| 2020s | 6 | £221,000 | £225,804 |
The highest yearly median on record for Hardys Road, Taunton is £329,000 in 2024; the lowest is £106,500 in 2023. Across the full 13-year record the cash median has moved from £305,995 to £230,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £446,177, so the real change over the whole record is -47.3% — about -5.20% 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: +12.7% in cash against -18.3% 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.

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 Hardys Road, Taunton 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. Hardys Road, Taunton 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Semi-detached | 65 | 32.2% | £216,000 | £160,000 – £365,000 |
| Detached | 62 | 30.7% | £302,500 | £201,000 – £542,500 |
| Terraced | 47 | 23.3% | £185,000 | £91,250 – £240,000 |
| Flat or maisonette | 28 | 13.9% | £123,000 | £56,250 – £174,995 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Hardys Road, Taunton
32 of the sales on record are leasehold and 170 freehold — 15.8% 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 £122,995 and the median freehold sale £234,500 — a gap of +90.7%. 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 | 32 | 15.8% | £122,995 |
| Freehold | 170 | 84.2% | £234,500 |
| New build | 106 | 52.5% | £208,495 |
| Existing home | 96 | 47.5% | £224,500 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -7.1%. 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.
A further 11 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.

Living in Hardys Road, Taunton
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% |
| D | 96,815 | 32.7% |
| E | 44,939 | 15.2% |
| F | 16,160 | 5.5% |
| G | 4,998 | 1.7% |
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 £212,498 here, that rent is a gross yield of 5.65% 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 TA2, 162 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 72 violent, 2 burglary, 5 vehicle-related and 17 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is about typical.
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 Hardys Road, Taunton compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Hardys Road, Taunton sits above that national figure — +34.9%.
Within Taunton the street ranks 506 of 1288 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £169,500 (+25.4%).
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 £56,250 to £542,500. 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.
Hardys Road, Taunton 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 Hardys Road, Taunton?
The median price paid in Hardys Road, Taunton across every sale on the register is £212,498. 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 Hardys Road, Taunton?
202 sales are on record for Hardys Road, Taunton, the most recent completing on 26 Feb 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
Have Hardys Road, Taunton house prices actually risen?
In cash, the median rose +12.7% between 2015 and 2025. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -18.3%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Hardys Road, Taunton house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £329,000, set in 2024. 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 Hardys Road, Taunton?
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 26 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.
