In cash terms the typical CF31 3 home went from £58,000 in 1995 to £200,000 in 2026, roughly 3.4 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 59%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 32% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the CF31 3 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 2004 (+34.0% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−20.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −20.0% | −21.9% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −1.3% | −5.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.1% | −1.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.1% | −1.6% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
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.
CF31 3 recorded 25 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 91 sales a year before the financial crisis and 62 a year over the last five. 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.
How CF31 3 trades
Only 25 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes CF31 3 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching. Against the CF31 district median, CF31 3 sits 11% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.
Rents around CF31 3
CF31 3 falls under Bridgend, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £749 a month (May 2026 figures). 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 £200,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.5%. 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.

Bedroom by bedroom: CF prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the CF area, 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.
| 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%) |

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
