Bodinnick market report PL23 1, Fowey
The PL23 1 (Bodinnick) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Underneath every chart here sit 3,041 registered sales in PL23 1 (Fowey) since 1995, the HM Land Registry record of what buyers really paid, with ONS figures covering rents. Nothing is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release. Page updated 19 October 2026.
In short: 29 registered 2026 sales put the PL23 1 (Fowey) median at £470,000, up 21% on five years earlier, with a mean of £536,700, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £4,780 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 3,041 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
PL23 1 is one sector of PL23 (Fowey): a handful of streets, and the most local view the sold record can give. The price of that locality is lumpier charts, because each year's median rests on fewer sales.

In cash terms the typical PL23 1 home went from £73,200 in 1995 to £470,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 195%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 12% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the PL23 1 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 2000 (+52.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−18.6%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year (since 2025) | +8.0% | +5.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.8% | −1.0% |
| 6 years (since 2020) | +4.8% | +0.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +6.3% | +2.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.4% | +0.6% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 29 sales completed in PL23 1. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 121 sales a year before the financial crisis and 61 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.
The shape of the PL23 1 market
Only 29 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes PL23 1 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. 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.
What tenants pay around PL23 1
For renting purposes PL23 1 sits in Cornwall. The ONS average private rent there is £1,003 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £691 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,510, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Cornwall
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £470,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,003 a month (£12,036 a year) works out at a 2.6% 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.

Moving up a bedroom in PL: the cost
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the PL area. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | £262,625 | £300,000 (+14%) | £347,000 (+16%) | £435,000 (+25%) | £584,500 (+34%) |

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.

About the numbers: everything is computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to the address; today's-money figures use the ONS CPIH index, and rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents by local authority. These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
