NP8 1 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside NP8 (Crickhowell). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

In cash terms the typical NP8 1 home went from £67,500 in 1995 to £386,500 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 163%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 27% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the NP8 1 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 2022 (+30.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−18.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −18.8% | −20.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.3% | −2.4% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.7% | +0.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.4% | −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.
How many homes change hands in NP8 1
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.
Over the last twelve months of data, 16 sales completed in NP8 1. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 87 sales a year before the financial crisis and 49 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.
What homes rent for around NP8 1
For renting purposes NP8 1 sits in Powys. The ONS average private rent there is £620 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £461 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £951, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Powys
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£620 a month is £7,440 a year, which against the £386,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 1.9%. 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.
Reading the NP8 1 market
Only 16 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes NP8 1 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.

No honest page predicts prices, so this one sticks to the record: the median is up 12% over five years in cash but down 12% after inflation. Anyone weighing a purchase should read the volume chart with the price chart, remembering that these are completed sales, registered weeks after the deals were actually struck.

What another bedroom costs in NP
What homes of each size actually sold for across the NP area, 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £285,000 | £370,000 (+30%) | £525,000 (+42%) | £683,000 (+30%) |
