Brackla market report CF31, Bridgend
The standing CF31 (Brackla) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Underneath every chart here sit 24,005 registered sales in CF31 (Bridgend) since 1995, the HM Land Registry record of what buyers really paid, with ONS figures covering rents. Nothing is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Sales recorded to July 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.
In short: 272 registered 2026 sales put the CF31 (Bridgend) median at £225,000, up 18% on five years earlier, with a mean of £244,700, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,600 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 24,005 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
CF31 is the postcode district covering Bridgend, Brackla, Coity in Bridgend. Districts are a practical way to slice a market: small enough to mean something locally, big enough to have a steady flow of sales to measure.

In cash terms the typical CF31 home went from £46,000 in 1995 to £225,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 125%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 11% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the CF31 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 (+31.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−8.4%). 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) | −1.5% | −3.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.4% | −1.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.3% | +0.9% |
| 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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of semi-detached homes dominate the record here, 42% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £320,000 against £127,000 for a flat, 2.5 times the price.

The turnover behind the prices
Sales per year, counted
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
The monthly pulse, last five years
Monthly registrations. The sawtooth is seasonal; the register runs weeks behind completions at the right-hand edge.
Over the last twelve months of data, 593 sales completed in CF31. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 1,103 sales a year before the financial crisis and 593 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.
The rental side of CF31
The local authority for CF31 is Bridgend, and its ONS average private rent currently stands 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 £225,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.0%. 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
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the CF area. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.

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

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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
