In cash terms the typical CF38 2 home went from £40,500 in 1995 to £218,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 148%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. The real-terms peak came in 2023, and today's median remains roughly 13% under it: a 2023 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the CF38 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 (+30.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−11.1%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What CF38 2 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −5.2% | −7.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +3.9% | −0.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +4.5% | +1.0% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
CF38 2 recorded 76 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 331 sales a year before the financial crisis and 156 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.
How CF38 2 trades
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.
The rental side of CF38 2
For renting purposes CF38 2 sits in Rhondda Cynon Taf. The ONS average private rent there is £748 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £524 a month here against £991 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Rhondda Cynon Taf
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£748 a month is £8,976 a year, which against the £218,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 4.1%. 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.

The price of an extra bedroom 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%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
