Across the whole PL18 district, Gunnislake and St Ann's Chapel's main postcode district: a typical £249,300.

Sales at the postcodes ONS places in this place: standard sales of homes at market value. A typical price is the median, the middle sale. Sales take weeks to be registered, so the last month or two are incomplete. Each postcode page gives the figure for its own postcode sector.

Are new homes being built in this place?

3 of the 159 postcodes now in use in Gunnislake and St Ann's Chapel came into use in January 2020 or later, ONS says. In the 12 months to September 2025, 0 of the 69 homes sold in Gunnislake and St Ann's Chapel were newly built (0%), HM Land Registry's records show; across the PL18 district, 0%.

The newest postcodes

A new postcode is often a new street or estate, but Royal Mail also makes new postcodes when it reorganises old ones, so not every one means new homes. Only postcodes still in use are counted.

New homes among the homes sold

PeriodIn this placeAcross the PL18 district
The 12 months to September 2026 0 of 41 (0%) 0 of 61 (0%)
The 12 months to September 2025 0 of 69 (0%) 0 of 100 (0%)

Standard sales of homes at market value that HM Land Registry marks as newly built. New homes take longer to be registered than other sales, so the latest 12 months count fewer of them than were sold. A share is given from 5 sales or more.

Homes and businesses in an area at risk of flooding from rivers or the sea, as the Environment Agency counts them, added up over the postcodes. It is for the land, not each building, and leaves out surface water, groundwater and sewers. Each postcode page has its own figures and its flood warning areas.
