Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on EX38: few sales, so go in with your eyes open
At around 12 sales a month, EX38 is quiet, so no single figure here should carry much weight, and the individual sold homes are the better guide.
For sellers, most sales in EX38 fell between £150,900 and £420,500, so check where your home would sit among the recent sales before choosing a number; sales are too rare here to hurry, so give the price a local agent’s sense-check; if certainty matters more than price, a quick cash sale usually means accepting about 70–85% of market value (a rough guide, not a quote).
Sell houseWhen buying here, typical prices in EX38 sit below the UK average, so ask what is behind the lower prices before you assume a bargain.
Before you offer in EX38, check planning history nearby (45 applications on record within 500 m), flood risk over the long term and council tax (Band D is £2,601 a year), and ask your conveyancer about the title.
Where the numbers are this loose, the free EX38 OfferCheck gives you something firmer to hold: flood, crime, planning and council tax, each with its source.

In plain English
What the Torridge (EX38) numbers mean
- The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £343,750 against £211,000 for terraced homes: about 1.6 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
- Nearly all of these sales (97%) were freehold, which points to mostly houses.
- This is a quiet district: only about 12 recorded sales a month.
Only 250 sales sit behind these figures, so they are a rough guide rather than a firm reading.

Read the detail
Across the 12 sampled EX38 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 3 to decile 7, with a median of decile 5 of 10: where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.
EX38 8AW, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 5 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. It's area context for the wider neighbourhood, not a judgement on any individual home.
Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (English Indices of Deprivation 2025, MHCLG). Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so EX38 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in EX38: the ones with the most recent recorded sales, up to a limit of 12. That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row. It is context for the neighbourhood, never a judgement on any individual home. How we choose the sample.

Cost to run
Two sources, one table
What it costs to run a home in EX38, band by band
Torridge's council tax for 2026-27 set against the EX38 median sold price of £250,000 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.
| Band | 1991 valueVOA basis | A yearTorridge | A month÷ 12 | Of the median÷ £250,000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | up to £40,000 | £1,734 | £145 | 0.69% |
| B | £40,001–£52,000 | £2,023 | £169 | 0.81% |

| H | over £320,000 | £5,203 | £434 | 2.08% |
The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the EX38 median sold price. A comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.
