PL20 7 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside PL20 (Yelverton). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical PL20 7 home went from £50,000 in 1995 to £255,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 135%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2007, and today's median remains roughly 27% under it: a 2007 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the PL20 7 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2002 (+40.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−18.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What PL20 7 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −6.9% | −9.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.4% | −4.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.4% | −1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.9% | −0.8% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
Transaction volumes
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 35 PL20 7 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 134 sales a year before the financial crisis and 83 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
What tenants pay around PL20 7
PL20 7 falls under West Devon, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £839 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £598 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,342 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, West Devon
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £255,000 median purchase price, a rent of £839 a month (£10,068 a year) works out at a 3.9% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.
The shape of the PL20 7 market
This is a thin market: 35 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching. Within PL20, this sector trades 21% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

Is PL20 7 (Bellever) a good place to buy a house?
How much did a house sell for in PL20 7 (Bellever)?
Are property prices falling in PL20 7 (Bellever)?
Are PL20 7 prices heading up or down?
That question has no honest answer, only evidence. The evidence: the median is roughly flat over five years in cash but down 19% after inflation. Weigh the volume chart alongside the price one before deciding anything, and bear in mind every figure is a completed sale that reached the register weeks after completion.
What is for sale in PL20 right now
Turning to what is actually available: 100 homes on the market right now, from 7 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole PL20 district, not just PL20 7: live asking prices are collected per district.
Of everything listed here, 16% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
Moving up a bedroom in PL: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the PL area, straight from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
