CF1 7 local market report Cardiff
Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 8 sales registered with HM Land Registry in CF1 7 (Cardiff) since 1996, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Sales data to 2020. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.
CF1 7 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside CF1 (Cardiff). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.
What a home in CF1 7 sells for
The 2020 median in CF1 7 is £135,000, from 1 registered sales; the mean, £135,000, sits almost on top of it, so sales bunch tightly around the typical price.

| Year | Median (cash) | Median (today's £) | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2020 | £135,000 | £171,074 | 1 |
| 2018 | £360,000 | £468,679 | 1 |
| 2017 | £560,000 | £745,946 | 1 |
| 2005 | £75,000 | £130,353 | 1 |

| 1997 | £60,000 | £120,174 | 1 |
| 1996 | £21,500 | £44,284 | 2 |
In cash terms the typical CF1 7 home went from £21,500 in 1996 to £135,000 in 2020, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 205%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not just more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2017; the current median sits about 77% below that. Someone who bought at the 2017 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.

Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
CF1 7 recorded 1 sales in the last twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 1 sales a year recently, against 1 a year before 2008. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
Will CF1 7 prices rise from here?
Nobody can tell you that, and this page will not pretend to. What the record shows: the median is up 80% over five years in cash and up 4% after inflation. If you are weighing a purchase, read the volume chart alongside the price one, and remember that every figure here is a completed sale, lagged by the weeks it takes the Land Registry to register it.
The risers and the fallers

How this page is made: the statistics are computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to address level; inflation adjustment uses the ONS CPIH index; rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents at local-authority level. Medians of recorded sales, not valuations. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
