In cash terms the typical CF24 4 home went from £47,000 in 1995 to £274,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 168%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 7% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the CF24 4 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+39.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−5.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +2.4% | 0.0% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.3% | −1.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.4% | −0.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.7% | −0.1% |
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.
How many homes change hands in CF24 4
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 55 sales completed in CF24 4. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 373 sales a year before the financial crisis and 110 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
What kind of market CF24 4 is
Only 55 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes CF24 4 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Against the CF24 district median, CF24 4 sits 13% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
The rental side of CF24 4
CF24 4 falls under Cardiff, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,157 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £894 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,677, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Cardiff
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £274,000 median sold price, £1,157 a month is £13,884 a year, a gross yield of 5.1%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

Moving up a bedroom in CF: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the CF area, straight from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £275,000 | £367,000 (+33%) | £550,000 (+50%) | £790,000 (+44%) |
