In cash terms the typical PL5 4 home went from £39,000 in 1995 to £189,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 123%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 14% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the PL5 4 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 2003 (+37.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−13.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What PL5 4 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −1.2% | −3.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.0% | −1.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.4% | 0.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.3% | −0.4% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
How many homes change hands in PL5 4
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
The register shows 36 PL5 4 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 203 sales a year before the financial crisis and 102 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
Reading the PL5 4 market
Only 36 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes PL5 4 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.
Rents around PL5 4
The local authority for PL5 4 is Plymouth, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £994 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £698 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,479 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Plymouth
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £189,000 median sold price, £994 a month is £11,928 a year, a gross yield of 6.3%: 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.

What you could buy in PL5 now
Turning to what is actually available: 223 homes on the market right now, from 10 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole PL5 district, not just PL5 4: live asking prices are collected per district.
30% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. Each listing is compared with recent recorded sales of similar homes nearby.
- Aylesbury Crescent, Plymouth, Devon, PL5
- Bonville Road, Plymouth, Devon, PL6
- Eastbury Avenue, Plymouth, Devon, PL5
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.

What another bedroom costs in PL
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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £295,000 | £396,000 (+34%) | £575,000 (+45%) | £775,000 (+35%) |
| Semi-detached | £199,750 | £237,500 (+19%) | £283,500 (+19%) | £370,000 (+31%) | £487,500 (+32%) |

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.
