How College Avenue, Tavistock prices moved
The chart tracks the median College Avenue, Tavistock house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2000 to 2019. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2000s | 3 | £167,000 | £304,225 |
| 2010s | 4 | £179,000 | £252,390 |
The highest yearly median on record for College Avenue, Tavistock is £265,000 in 2019; the lowest is £78,500 in 2000. Across the full 20-year record the cash median has moved from £78,500 to £265,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £157,000, so the real change over the whole record is +120.8% — about +4.26% 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: +30.1% in cash against -4.4% 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.

Section 06
Ownership and new build in College Avenue, Tavistock
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 85 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 | 85 | 100.0% | £175,000 |
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.
Section 09
How College Avenue, Tavistock compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. College Avenue, Tavistock sits above that national figure — +11.1%.
Within Tavistock the street ranks 155 of 269 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £180,000 (-2.8%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,000 per square metre, across 31 of the 85 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.

How many homes have sold in College Avenue, Tavistock?

When were College Avenue, Tavistock house prices at their highest?

The latest sale shown here completed on 12 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.
