In cash terms the typical CF36 5 home went from £60,000 in 1995 to £320,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 145%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. The real-terms peak came in 2022, and today's median remains roughly 13% under it: a 2022 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the CF36 5 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 (+36.2% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−11.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What CF36 5 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +6.7% | +4.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.9% | +0.1% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.2% | +0.8% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.2% | +0.4% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Transaction volumes
Sales per year, counted
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, 35 sales completed in CF36 5. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 145 sales a year before the financial crisis and 91 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.
Rents around CF36 5
For renting purposes CF36 5 sits in Bridgend. The ONS average private rent there is £749 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £552 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,123, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Bridgend
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £320,000 median sold price, £749 a month is £8,988 a year, a gross yield of 2.8%: 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.
Reading the CF36 5 market
This is a thin market: 35 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. 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.

The price of an extra bedroom in CF
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the CF area. 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%) |

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.
