Market Overview: PL2
Activity in PL2 over the last twelve months ran to 54 residential sales, giving a workable sample size for median-level analysis. Individual sales ranged from £48k to £395k, which is a normal spread for a postcode of this size.
Terraced houses were the most common transaction type, representing 56% of sales, while flats accounted for 39%. A terraced-house majority usually reflects Victorian or Edwardian stock — long runs of three- or four-storey houses that rarely come to market vacant.
The PL2 1AB dataset is a reasonable baseline, but decisions at the individual-property level should still lean on matched comparables rather than the area median alone. On the rental side, the estimated gross yield on a median-priced property here is around 6.3%, based on ONS regional rents.
