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 Barton Leys, Totnes 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. Barton Leys, Totnes 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 Barton Leys, Totnes

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 42 freehold — 0.0% 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.

CategorySalesShareMedian paid
Leasehold00.0%
Freehold42100.0%£301,500
New build921.4%£331,000
Existing home3378.6%£295,000
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +12.2%. 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 1 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.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across South Hams, 36.3% of 52,222 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 12.0% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in South Hams at £1,005 a month as of Jun 2026 — £732 for a one-bedroom home and £1,130 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £301,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 4.00% 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 TQ9, 10 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 1 violent, 0 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 5 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 16.7 times quieter.

Against the 88,627 residents the 2021 census counted in South Hams, that is 0.11 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.

Section 08

Section 09

How Barton Leys, Totnes compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Barton Leys, Totnes sits above that national figure — +91.4%.

Within Totnes the street ranks 98 of 368 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £235,000 (+28.3%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £3,355 per square metre, across 8 of the 42 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 £175,000 to £525,000. 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.

Barton Leys, Totnes sits in South Hams, in the South West.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in South Hams at 11.4 times median local earnings of £32,086 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 Barton Leys, Totnes?

The median price paid in Barton Leys, Totnes across every sale on the register is £301,500. 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 Barton Leys, Totnes?

42 sales are on record for Barton Leys, Totnes, the most recent completing on 15 Oct 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

When were Barton Leys, Totnes house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £313,000, set in 2005. 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 Barton Leys, Totnes?

£3,355 per square metre, from the 8 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 15 Oct 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.
