House Prices in Bath And North East Somerset

Property Market Overview — Bath and North East Somerset has seen substantial transaction activity over five years, with nearly 16,000 sales recorded. The area commands a median price of £381,997, though the average of £527,918 reflects a significant spread driven by pricier properties in Bath itself. Overall market value has dipped 4.7% across the period.

Property Types and Price Differences — Detached homes stand notably apart at £715,328, roughly double the price of terraced properties (£458,812) and semi-detached homes (£453,723). Flats remain the most affordable segment at £332,273, making them approximately one-fifth the cost of detached houses. Terraced and semi-detached properties dominate sales volume, together accounting for over half of all transactions.

Price Trends Over Time — Prices climbed steeply from 2021 to 2023, peaking at £572,517, before softening in 2024 and early 2025. The 2026 data shows a sharper decline to £460,345, bringing values closer to 2021 levels and suggesting a cooling phase after several years of growth.

What Stands Out — Bath itself drives the market, accounting for roughly two-thirds of all sales and commanding significantly higher prices than surrounding areas like Bristol and Radstock. The gap between Bath (£606,290) and Radstock (£302,611) underscores stark regional variation within the county.
