How Bitham Mill, Westbury prices moved

The chart tracks the median Bitham Mill, Westbury house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2002 to 2022. 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 Bitham Mill, Westbury is £274,950 in 2022; the lowest is £125,250 in 2002. Across the full 21-year record the cash median has moved from £125,250 to £274,950.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £241,590, so the real change over the whole record is +31.9% — about +1.39% 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: +48.6% in cash against -3.3% 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.

Ownership and new build in Bitham Mill, Westbury

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 103 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%

New build4442.7%£153,250

Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -17.2%. 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 3 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 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 £172,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 6.98% 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 BA13, 119 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 47 violent, 2 burglary, 2 vehicle-related and 37 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.4 times quieter.

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.

Bitham Mill, Westbury 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.

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Bitham Mill, Westbury?

How many homes have sold in Bitham Mill, Westbury?

103 sales are on record for Bitham Mill, Westbury, the most recent completing on 25 Nov 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

When were Bitham Mill, Westbury house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £274,950, set in 2022. 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 Bitham Mill, Westbury?

£1,839 per square metre, from the 24 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.
