| 1995 | £34,000 | £73,911 | 103 |
In cash terms the typical CF47 0 home went from £34,000 in 1995 to £132,200 in 2026, roughly 3.9 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 79%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2025; the current median sits about 24% below that. Someone who bought at the 2025 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the CF47 0 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 2002 (+34.3% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−22.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What CF47 0 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −22.2% | −24.1% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.0% | −3.7% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.0% | −1.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.5% | −1.3% |
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
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 register shows 28 CF47 0 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 146 sales a year before the financial crisis and 84 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
What tenants pay around CF47 0
CF47 0 falls under Merthyr Tydfil, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £754 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £553 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,092 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.
Average monthly rent by size, Merthyr Tydfil
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £132,200 median purchase price, a rent of £754 a month (£9,048 a year) works out at a 6.8% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.
Reading the CF47 0 market
Only 28 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes CF47 0 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.

What another bedroom costs in CF
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.
