Section 02
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.

Section 03
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 The Downs, 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. The Downs, Looe 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 19 | 55.9% | £395,000 | £77,500 – £945,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in The Downs, Looe
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 34 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 | 34 | 100.0% | £246,000 |
Section 09
How The Downs, Looe compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. The Downs, Looe sits above that national figure — +56.2%.
Within Looe the street ranks 25 of 169 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £168,000 (+46.4%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £3,738 per square metre, across 2 of the 34 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 £40,000 to £945,000. 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.

How many homes have sold in The Downs, Looe?
34 sales are on record for The Downs, Looe, the most recent completing on 18 Nov 2024. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
What is the price per square metre in The Downs, Looe?
£3,738 per square metre, from the 2 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 18 Nov 2024. 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.
