Surveyors · Hemyock, Devon
RICS Level 2 and Level 3 surveys for homes in Hemyock, Mid Devon, with local data on age, flood, radon and listed buildings.
Our suggestion for Hemyock
About a fifth or more of Hemyock's homes are pre-1919, so the right survey depends on the house. Pick Level 3 for anything pre-1919, listed or much altered; a Level 2 covers a standard post-war or modern house in fair condition. 21% of 2025 sales here were new-builds; for a brand-new home, a snagging inspection may be more useful than either.
The median Hemyock sale in 2025 was £295,000, across 24 sales (up 13% on 2024's £260,000).
| Type | Median |
|---|---|
| detached | £405,000 |
| semi-detached | £254,000 |
Sales mix: detached 50%, semi-detached 38%, terraced 12%. EX15. HM Land Registry, 2025, ONS built-up area. Residents: Hemyock built-up area, ONS Census 2021.
31% of the housing stock in these neighbourhoods dates from before 1919 and 28% from before 1900. Expect solid walls rather than cavities, so damp diagnosis needs care: cement renders, plastic paints and raised ground levels trap moisture in walls that were designed to breathe.
