In cash terms the typical PL6 5 home went from £56,000 in 1995 to £266,200 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 119%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 12% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the PL6 5 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 (+32.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2019 (−11.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What PL6 5 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +6.5% | +4.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.6% | −1.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.6% | +0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.4% | −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.
Sales activity in PL6 5
Sales per year, counted
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
PL6 5 recorded 68 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 246 sales a year before the financial crisis and 157 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.
How PL6 5 trades
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 PL6, this sector trades 14% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.
The rental side of PL6 5
For renting purposes PL6 5 sits in Plymouth. The ONS average private rent there is £994 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £698 a month here against £1,479 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Plymouth
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£994 a month is £11,928 a year, which against the £266,200 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.5%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

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. 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.
