Somerset

Somerset is a county in the South West of England with an approximate population of around 910,000. Taunton is the administrative headquarters of Somerset.

Somerset House Prices

It is extremely difficult to produce a generalised figure that accurately represents and accounts for every aspect of the housing market in an area the size of Somerset. Not only does the very size of the county dictate that there will inevitably be widespread variation across regional markets, but there are also other factors that affect local markets and subsequently lead to distinct variations in house values.

For this reason it is more helpful to view the housing market in Somerset as a collection of distinct, varied local housing markets that are separate yet interconnected.

To illustrate this, it would appear axiomatic to a local resident of Somerset that comparable houses in Bathampton and Brean are not going to show any similarity in price. In fact there is almost four hundred thousand pounds difference between the average house price in these two areas.

In general average house prices in Somerset are similar to those in Bristol and Wiltshire but cheaper than nearby Dorset. Average house prices in Somerset are also broadly similar to what they were last year and not very different to the average house price in the county back in 2007.

However, it is worth reiterating that general figures can only tell you so much. In order to obtain a truly accurate representation of your home’s true value, why not contact National Homebuyers? Contact us today and we will provide you with a fast, accurate, comprehensive, no obligation valuation of your property. We do not work on set percentages or averages and we treat each home we value on a completely individual basis, allowing you to gain a clear picture of your home’s true worth.

Somerset Culture, Attractions & Things to Do

Somerset is full of breathtaking natural sites that continue to draw countless visitors over several generations, both before and after Wordsworth and Coleridge. Some of the most notable of these are the Mendip Hills, The Quantocks, the Somerset Levels and Moors, Chew Valley and part of Exmoor. Then of course there are the school trip staples Wookey Hole and Cheddar Gorge. As far as man made structures go there are not many, anywhere, that rival Wells Cathedral, or virtually the entire architectural landscape of Bath.

And of course, one of the features of Somerset that continues to boost its tourist industry is the county’s magnificent coastlines.

The Glastonbury Festival is one of the UK’s largest and the Bath Literature Festival and the Frome Festival are also important annual events in the calendar.

Then there is King Arthur. Common opinion agrees that Somerset is King Arthur country and Glastonbury Tor has been synonymous with Avalon for over a millennium. While these beliefs are somewhat apocryphal, it is at least certain that the religious centre at Glastonbury has been old for a long time and they have been claiming a connection with the Arthurian legend for around thirteen centuries.

Somerset Tradition & History

The Mendip Hills show signs of Palaeolithic settlement and the county is full of sites of great archaeological interest such as Cheddar Gorge. The Sweet Track runs through the Glastonbury and Brent Knoll areas, which was inhabited by Mesolithic hunter gatherers and is one of the oldest engineered roadways in the world. The henge monument at Stanton Drew is believed to be Neolithic.

Somerset shows rich evidence dating from the Roman occupation, nowhere more dramatically than in Bath.

Somerset remained British long after the Anglo-Saxons conquered most of Britain. It eventually fell under the dominion of Wessex during the reign of King Ine in the 8^th century and the Saxon palace at cheddar held several Witengamots.

HMP Shepton Mallet is the oldest extant prison in the country, having been established in 1610.

The Battle of Langport and the Siege of Taunton, which were both fought during the English Civil War, took place in Somerset and, along with Devon, the county was also the theatre of war for the Monmouth rebellions of 1685.

Mass expansion did not arrive in Somerset during the Industrial Revolution, though coalmining was an important industry in the county during the 18^th and 19^th centuries.
