In cash terms the typical TR8 5 home went from £52,500 in 1995 to £342,500 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 200%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 25% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the TR8 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 2002 (+44.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2014 (−15.5%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −2.8% | −5.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.1% | −5.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.4% | 0.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.1% | −0.7% |
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 TR8 5
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 24 TR8 5 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 95 sales a year before the financial crisis and 61 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.
Reading the TR8 5 market
Only 24 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes TR8 5 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.
The rental side of TR8 5
TR8 5 falls under Cornwall, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,003 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £691 a month here against £1,510 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Cornwall
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £342,500 median purchase price, a rent of £1,003 a month (£12,036 a year) works out at a 3.5% 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in TR
What homes of each size actually sold for across the TR area, from the Land Registry record. 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 | — | £320,000 | £447,500 (+40%) | £650,000 (+45%) | £910,000 (+40%) |
