Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on TQ9: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead

TQ9 sees about 23 sales a month, which suits pricing from the latest sold homes better than from any single average or trend.

When selling here, the spread in TQ9 is wide, with most sales between £204,500 and £751,500, so lean on the nearest like-for-like sale rather than the middle figure; buyers can compare homes at this pace but are not spoilt for choice.

Sell house

For buyers, TQ9 sits well above the UK average for typical prices, so a price above the norm for the area should be earned by the home itself, not assumed.

Worth checking before you commit: planning history nearby (57 applications on record within 500 m), long-term flood risk and council tax (Band D is £2,615 a year); your conveyancer should look at the title too.

With averages this broad, the free TQ9 OfferCheck adds flood, crime, planning and council tax from the official sources.

In plain English

What the South Hams (TQ9) numbers mean

  • The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £590,000 against £210,000 for flats: about 2.8 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
  • Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £204,500 and £751,500, so the median says little about any one home.
  • This is an active district: about 23 recorded sales a month.

Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (English Indices of Deprivation 2025, MHCLG). Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so TQ9 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in TQ9: the ones with the most recent recorded sales, up to a limit of 12. That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row.

South Hams's council tax for 2026-27 set against the TQ9 median sold price of £400,000 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the TQ9 median sold price. A comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.

Questions, answered

The TQ9 report: your questions

What is the average house price in TQ9?
The typical (median) sold price in TQ9 is £400,000, from 250 recorded sales between 25 September 2025 and 20 August 2026. Most sales fell between £204,500 and £751,500. That is well above the UK average (£272,611) (UK House Price Index averages). A median is the middle sale, so a few very expensive homes do not pull it up the way they pull up an average.
What does each type of home cost in TQ9?
Typical sold prices by type in TQ9: detached homes £590,000 (75 sales), terraced homes £355,000 (72 sales), semi-detached homes £400,000 (55 sales), flats £210,000 (27 sales). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
How much is council tax in TQ9?
TQ9 is billed by South Hams, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,615 a year. Every band from A to H is listed on this page. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and there is no free per-address dataset for it, so we never guess an individual home's band. Look it up on GOV.UK and read your row.
Which schools are near TQ9?
The Department for Education's register lists 7 open schools within 3 km of the TQ9 district centre, the nearest being ROC College (part of United Response). These are nearest by straight-line distance from the district centroid. They are not catchment or admission areas, which councils set individually and do not publish centrally.
How up to date are the TQ9 sold prices?
Sold prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, covering sales up to 28 August 2026. The store is rebuilt monthly. New sales can take several weeks to appear in the official register after completion, so the very latest transactions may not show yet.
Is TQ9 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 TQ9 postcodes we sampled (the ones with the most recent recorded sales, not a random sample) run from decile 5 to decile 5, with a median of decile 5 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. Deprivation is published for small areas, not postcode districts, so a district like TQ9 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near TQ9?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 57 applications within 500 m of the TQ9 district centre; the most recent are listed on this page with their reference, description and status as the authority published them. For an up-to-the-minute search, use the planning tool with your full postcode.
Can I see what an individual address in TQ9 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 245 distinct addresses in the records we hold for TQ9, each with its price and date. Addresses come from recorded sales since 1995, so a home that has never been sold does not appear; and we link an address to its own property page only where the match is certain, never by guessing.
Does TQ9 cover my exact street?
TQ9 is the outward half of the postcode and covers the whole district, so the district-wide figures on this page are medians and ranges, not a valuation of any single property. The address list gives you the door-level picture, and the free checks take a full postcode.
