What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Townsend, Warminster 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 |

| Detached | 33 | 47.8% | £205,000 | £55,500 – £750,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Townsend, Warminster

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Wiltshire, 46.2% of 244,491 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 5.6% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Wiltshire at £1,069 a month as of Jun 2026 — £740 for a one-bedroom home and £1,204 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £179,950 here, that rent is a gross yield of 7.13% 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 BA12, 1 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 1 violent, 0 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 0 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 100.0 times quieter.
Against the 510,333 residents the 2021 census counted in Wiltshire, that is 0.00 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
The neighbourhood around Townsend, Warminster
The 2021 census counted 510,333 residents in Wiltshire across 215,081 households. 68.0% of those households own their home and 31.9% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
15 state and independent schools have a BA12 postcode: 14 primary, 1 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

Within Warminster the street ranks 247 of 435 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £170,000 (+5.9%).

Townsend, Warminster sits in Wiltshire, in the South West.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Wiltshire at 8.8 times median local earnings of £36,370 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.
