Why Now Could Be the Perfect Time to Sell Your Home in Street
If you've been thinking about selling your home here in Street, you might be wondering whether now is the right moment to make your move. As your local estate agent who knows this wonderful Somerset village inside out, I wanted to share some thoughts on why 2026 could be worth considering if you're planning a sale.
Street's Enduring Appeal
Street's reputation as an excellent place to live continues to attract buyers from across Somerset and beyond. The presence of Millfield School, the iconic Clarks Village shopping outlet, and excellent transport links to Bristol, Taunton, and beyond make the area particularly attractive to families and professionals alike. The village atmosphere, combined with modern conveniences, creates a lifestyle that's increasingly sought after in today's property market.
Why Consider Selling Now?
Spring traditionally sees renewed activity in the property market as gardens come to life and buyers start thinking seriously about their next move. Listing during this period means viewers can appreciate your home at its best, along with everything that comes with living here—Thursday mornings at Street Market, walks around the beautiful surrounding countryside, or the strong sense of community we enjoy.
Starting conversations now, rather than waiting until later in the year, gives you time to prepare your property properly and understand what it might realistically achieve. Street's location—within reach of Glastonbury, Wells, and with good access to the M5 for Bristol or Taunton—continues to appeal to a range of buyers, from young families to those looking to downsize.
