In cash terms the typical CF43 4 home went from £18,100 in 1995 to £110,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 180%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs.
Year-on-year change in the CF43 4 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 2005 (+44.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2012 (−16.9%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What CF43 4 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +18.3% | +15.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +6.3% | +1.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +7.2% | +3.6% |
| 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.
How many homes change hands in CF43 4
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 35 sales completed in CF43 4. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 126 sales a year before the financial crisis and 72 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.
What homes rent for around CF43 4
The local authority for CF43 4 is Rhondda Cynon Taf, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £748 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £524 a month for a typical one-bed to £991 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Rhondda Cynon Taf
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £110,000 median sold price, £748 a month is £8,976 a year, a gross yield of 8.2%: 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.
How CF43 4 trades
Only 35 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes CF43 4 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint.

A lot of searches that reach this page are full postcodes, CF43 4SX among them. A full postcode is a street segment of a dozen or so homes, below even sector level; the medians on this page are the context, and the live map shows every recorded sale at those exact addresses.
Search phrases quoted verbatim from Google Search Console for this site (last 16 months); each is answered from the page's own Land Registry figures.

What another bedroom costs in CF
Real sold prices by size across the CF area, straight 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%) |

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. Sizes with too few homes to be meaningful are left blank.
