| 1996 | £71,000 | £149,736 | 95 |
| 1995 | £73,200 | £159,126 | 64 |
In cash terms the typical PL23 home went from £73,200 in 1995 to £506,800 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 218%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 5% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the PL23 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.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +17.2% | +14.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +5.4% | +0.5% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +7.1% | +3.6% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.8% | +1.0% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of detached houses dominate the record here, 38% of the typed total. In 2025, the last year both were recorded here, a detached home traded at £568,000 against £297,500 for a flat, 1.9 times the price.

How many homes change hands in PL23
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.
The monthly pulse, last five years
Registrations by month. The repeating sawtooth is seasonality, and the right-hand edge always dips because the register lags completions.
Over the last twelve months of data, 57 sales completed in PL23. 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 59 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
What kind of market PL23 is
Only 57 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes PL23 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. PL23 sits 2 of 35 in its area's price order, well inside the expensive end.
Rents around PL23
For renting purposes PL23 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.
Set against the £506,800 median sold price, £1,003 a month is £12,036 a year, a gross yield of 2.4%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

Moving up a bedroom in PL: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the PL area, straight from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £295,000 | £396,000 (+34%) | £575,000 (+45%) | £775,000 (+35%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
