Just over £310,000 buys the middle of this village. Detached is a separate conversation at close to half a million. Terraces and semis sit in the mid-£200,000s, which is where most of the village actually changes hands. Under sixty homes sold in a year, so this is less a market than a slow queue. You are paying for a hilltop and a commute, not for the address, and the price reflects that with unusual honesty.
The Land Registry recorded 58 sales in the year to May 2026, at a median of about £313,500. Split by type, detached homes went at £450,000 across 23 sales, terraced at £275,000 across another 23, and semi-detached at £267,500 across 10. The village has two price worlds and almost nothing linking them: the detached stock plays by its own rules, and everything else is priced for people who need three bedrooms and a driveway rather than a statement.
The published house-price index for the wider area put the average at about £406,000 as of May 2026, up around 1% over twelve months. That is a small move and worth calling small, not a recovery or a warning. Flats went the other way, down about 2% over the same twelve months, at an average of about £239,000. Flats are a thin part of this village anyway, so that number tells you more about the surrounding area than about anything you are likely to view here.
Council tax lands lightly by local standards. The most common band is B, and about 37% of dwellings sit in bands A or B. A band D bill runs to £2,383 a year, which is the figure most readers can hold against their own and the one that quietly makes the case for the place.
Renting is only published across Bath and North East Somerset, so treat it as an area marker and not the village's own number. Typical private rent across that area was about £1,880 a month as of April 2026, taken as a mean from the Office for National Statistics index rather than a median of what is currently advertised. By size, a one-bedroom averages £1,200, a two-bedroom about £1,510, a three-bedroom about £1,800, and four bedrooms or more about £2,530. Bath sits inside every one of those figures, which is worth remembering before anyone quotes them back at you on a viewing.
On affordability, gross household income here was modelled at about £65,600 for the financial year to March 2023, before tax and now a couple of years old. Set against a median sale price of £313,500, that is a genuine stretch for a single earner and a workable one for two. This is not a village where the sums fall apart, and it is not one where they are easy either.
Of the sales that can be matched to an energy certificate for floor area, roughly 90% of them, the median works out at about £3,950 per square metre, with a typical floor area of 79 square metres behind it. That is the number to carry into a viewing when an agent starts talking about potential rather than rooms.
The bedroom mix at the 2021 census explains most of what comes up for sale. About 41% of homes have three bedrooms, 28% have four or more, 24% have two, and 7% have one. Anyone hunting a one-bedroom flat here is competing for a sliver of a village that was built for families and never really stopped.
Prices in Peasedown St John are unremarkable in the most useful sense: neither a bargain worth boasting about nor a stretch that needs justifying. Middling, stable, and entirely legible, which is more than most of the surrounding area manages.
