The most recent sales

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. The Square, Ivybridge 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 41 | 64.1% | £215,000 | £42,000 – £612,500 |
| Detached | 12 | 18.8% | £335,000 | £145,000 – £510,000 |
| Semi-detached | 11 | 17.2% | £300,000 | £70,000 – £601,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in The Square, Ivybridge
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 64 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.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 64 | 100.0% | £231,000 |
A further 1 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.

Living in The Square, Ivybridge
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across South Hams, 36.3% of 52,222 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 12.0% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 775 | 1.5% |
| B | 6,359 | 12.2% |
| C | 11,843 | 22.7% |
| D | 16,680 | 31.9% |
| E | 10,298 | 19.7% |
| F | 4,645 | 8.9% |
| G | 1,622 | 3.1% |
The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in South Hams at £1,005 a month as of Jun 2026 — £732 for a one-bedroom home and £1,130 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £231,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 5.22% 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 PL21, 46 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 30 violent, 2 burglary, 1 vehicle-related and 4 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 3.6 times quieter.
Against the 88,627 residents the 2021 census counted in South Hams, that is 0.52 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 The Square, Ivybridge
The 2021 census counted 88,627 residents in South Hams across 39,337 households. 72.1% of those households own their home and 27.9% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
9 state and independent schools have a PL21 postcode: 8 primary, 1 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

How The Square, Ivybridge compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. The Square, Ivybridge sits above that national figure — +46.7%.
Within Ivybridge the street ranks 94 of 322 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £170,000 (+35.9%).
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 £42,000 to £612,500. 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.
The Square, Ivybridge sits in South Hams, in the South West.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in South Hams at 11.4 times median local earnings of £32,086 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 The Square, Ivybridge?
The median price paid in The Square, Ivybridge across every sale on the register is £231,000. 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 The Square, Ivybridge?
64 sales are on record for The Square, Ivybridge, the most recent completing on 11 Sep 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
Have The Square, Ivybridge house prices actually risen?
In cash, the median rose +125.7% between 1998 and 2013. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +58.7%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were The Square, Ivybridge house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £378,000, set in 2013. 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 The Square, Ivybridge?
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 11 Sep 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.
