A postcode sector like CF31 2 is a single group of streets within CF31 (Bridgend), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

In cash terms the typical CF31 2 home went from £43,000 in 1995 to £195,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 109%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 15% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the CF31 2 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 (+35.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−9.6%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −6.9% | −9.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.8% | −1.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.6% | +0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.4% | −0.4% |
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.
Sales activity in CF31 2
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.
The register shows 76 CF31 2 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 325 sales a year before the financial crisis and 158 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.
The rental side of CF31 2
For renting purposes CF31 2 sits in Bridgend. The ONS average private rent there is £749 a month (May 2026). The spread runs from £552 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,123 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Bridgend
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£749 a month is £8,988 a year, which against the £195,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.6%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.
Reading the CF31 2 market
Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing. Against the CF31 district median, CF31 2 sits 13% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.

CF31's current homes for sale
The live side of the market holds 30 homes at the moment, listed by 2 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole CF31 district, not just CF31 2: live asking prices are collected per district.
21% of current listings sit under the prices comparable homes actually fetched. Every listing is measured against recent recorded sales of similar nearby homes.
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

What another bedroom costs in CF
What homes of each size actually sold for across the CF area, from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £275,000 | £367,000 (+33%) | £550,000 (+50%) | £790,000 (+44%) |
| Semi-detached | £190,000 | £217,000 (+14%) | £260,000 (+20%) | £380,000 (+46%) | £530,000 (+39%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
