How North Road, Looe prices moved

The chart tracks the median North Road, Looe house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1997 to 2023. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for North Road, Looe is £260,000 in 2023; the lowest is £49,000 in 1997. Across the full 27-year record the cash median has moved from £49,000 to £260,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £103,895, so the real change over the whole record is +170.4% — about +3.90% 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: +20.6% in cash against -12.7% 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.

Homes that sold twice

These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to North Road, Looe values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. North Road, Looe is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Section 06

Ownership and new build in North Road, Looe

23 of the sales on record are leasehold and 68 freehold — 25.3% 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.

The median leasehold sale is £133,000 and the median freehold sale £166,500 — a gap of +25.2%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

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.

Section 09

How North Road, Looe compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. North Road, Looe sits below that national figure — -3.5%.

Within Looe the street ranks 108 of 169 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £168,000 (-9.5%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,213 per square metre, across 17 of the 91 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

The full range on record runs from £13,250 to £500,000. 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.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in North Road, Looe?

The median price paid in North Road, Looe across every sale on the register is £152,000. 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 North Road, Looe?

91 sales are on record for North Road, Looe, the most recent completing on 10 Jul 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have North Road, Looe house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +20.6% between 2012 and 2023. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -12.7%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were North Road, Looe house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £260,000, set in 2023. 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 North Road, Looe?

£2,213 per square metre, from the 17 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 10 Jul 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.
