Section 01
How Polwheal Road, Camborne prices moved
The chart tracks the median Polwheal Road, Camborne house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1998 to 2005. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 1 | £33,250 | £73,831 |
| 2000s | 3 | £89,975 | £163,908 |
The highest yearly median on record for Polwheal Road, Camborne is £122,500 in 2005; the lowest is £33,250 in 1998. Across the full 8-year record the cash median has moved from £33,250 to £122,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £68,945, so the real change over the whole record is +223.7% — about +18.27% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.
Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +268.4% in cash against +223.7% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Polwheal Road, Camborne is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |

Ownership and new build in Polwheal Road, Camborne
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 72 freehold — 0.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.

Living in Polwheal Road, Camborne
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Cornwall, 37.4% of 321,040 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 14.2% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 3,287 | 1.0% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Cornwall at £1,005 a month as of Jun 2026 — £692 for a one-bedroom home and £1,082 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £118,225 here, that rent is a gross yield of 10.20% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.
Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of TR14, 177 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 86 violent, 0 burglary, 3 vehicle-related and 31 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is about typical.
Against the 570,305 residents the 2021 census counted in Cornwall, that is 0.31 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.
A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.
Section 08
The neighbourhood around Polwheal Road, Camborne

13 state and independent schools have a TR14 postcode: 11 primary, 1 nursery, 1 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

Within Camborne the street ranks 239 of 338 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £133,000 (-11.1%).
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.
The full range on record runs from £31,400 to £212,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.
Polwheal Road, Camborne sits in Cornwall, in the South West.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Cornwall at 8.6 times median local earnings of £33,889 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Polwheal Road, Camborne?
The median price paid in Polwheal Road, Camborne across every sale on the register is £118,225. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.
How many homes have sold in Polwheal Road, Camborne?
72 sales are on record for Polwheal Road, Camborne, the most recent completing on 25 Jun 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
Have Polwheal Road, Camborne house prices actually risen?
In cash, the median rose +268.4% between 1998 and 2005. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +223.7%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Polwheal Road, Camborne house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £122,500, set in 2005. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
What is the price per square metre in Polwheal Road, Camborne?
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 25 Jun 2025. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
