TR21 local market report Isles Of Scilly

Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 685 sales registered with HM Land Registry in TR21 (Isles Of Scilly) since 1995, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.

Sales data to August 2025. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.

TR21 is the postcode district covering St Mary's, Hugh Town in Isles Of Scilly. Districts are a practical way to slice a market: small enough to mean something locally, big enough to have a steady flow of sales to measure.

In cash terms the typical TR21 home went from £129,500 in 1995 to £531,200 in 2025, roughly 4 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 93%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not just more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2006; the current median sits about 25% below that. Someone who bought at the 2006 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.

Year-on-year change in the TR21 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 2025 (+51.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2013 (−25.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

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.

TR21 recorded 46 sales in the last twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 23 sales a year recently, against 21 a year before 2008. 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 homes rent for around TR21

TR21 falls under Cornwall, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,003 a month (May 2026 figures). 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.

Set against the £531,200 median sold price, £1,003 a month is £12,036 a year, a gross yield of 2.3%: 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.

Will TR21 prices rise from here?

Nobody can tell you that, and this page will not pretend to. What the record shows: the median is up 77% over five years in cash and up 40% after inflation. If you are weighing a purchase, read the volume chart alongside the price one, and remember that every figure here is a completed sale, lagged by the weeks it takes the Land Registry to register it.

Ladders and snakes: five-year risers and fallers

TR21 ranks 1 of 23 in the TR area on five-year growth. The gap between the top and bottom of this chart is the difference between buying well and buying badly in the same city.
