Our take · opinion, not advice

Our take on CF81: a steady market, so let the sold prices lead

250 sales since April 2025 make CF81 a steady market, so there is a fair body of evidence, but not enough of it for a trustworthy twelve-month trend.

For sellers, most sales in CF81 fell between £89,900 and £252,325, so narrow down to sold homes that match yours before you pick a price; sales arrive at a steady pace, so there is no need to rush to a low price.

Sell house

When buying here, CF81 sits well below the Wales average for typical prices, so ask what is behind the lower prices before you assume a bargain.

Worth checking before you commit: whether the home is at risk of flooding, planning applications nearby and the EPC, since it drives running costs; your conveyancer should look at the title too.

Next step: the free CF81 OfferCheck, which sets flood, crime, planning, council tax and schools next to these prices, with every source named.

Deprivation (IMD)

Area profile for CF81

The English Indices of Deprivation cover England only, so there is no decile to show for a Wales district. The equivalent measure is the Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation (Welsh Government), which is published on a different geography and a different scale. The two are not interchangeable, so we do not substitute one for the other.

Questions, answered

The CF81 report: your questions

What is the average house price in CF81?
The typical (median) sold price in CF81 is £138,500, from 250 recorded sales between 9 April 2025 and 25 August 2026. Most sales fell between £89,900 and £252,325. That is well below both the Wales average (£215,037) and the UK average (£272,611) (UK House Price Index averages). A median is the middle sale, so a few very expensive homes do not pull it up the way they pull up an average.
What does each type of home cost in CF81?
Typical sold prices by type in CF81: terraced homes £125,000 (152 sales), semi-detached homes £171,500 (66 sales), detached homes £325,000 (19 sales), flats £85,000 (1 sale). Use the figure for your type of home rather than the all-homes median.
Is CF81 cheaper than the rest of Wales?
CF81's typical sold price of £138,500 is well below the Wales average of £215,037 (UK House Price Index, July 2026). The official figure is a mean and ours is a median, so read the gap as a direction rather than an exact difference.
Which schools are near CF81?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the CF81 district centre, the nearest being St Gwladys Bargoed School. These are nearest by straight-line distance from the district centroid. They are not catchment or admission areas, which councils set individually and do not publish centrally.
How up to date are the CF81 sold prices?
Sold prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, covering sales up to 28 August 2026. The store is rebuilt monthly. New sales can take several weeks to appear in the official register after completion, so the very latest transactions may not show yet.
Have there been planning applications near CF81?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 7 applications within 500 m of the CF81 district centre; the most recent are listed on this page with their reference, description and status as the authority published them. For an up-to-the-minute search, use the planning tool with your full postcode.
Can I see what an individual address in CF81 sold for?
Yes. This page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 248 distinct addresses in the records we hold for CF81, each with its price and date. Addresses come from recorded sales since 1995, so a home that has never been sold does not appear; and we link an address to its own property page only where the match is certain, never by guessing.
Does CF81 cover my exact street?
CF81 is the outward half of the postcode and covers the whole district, so the district-wide figures on this page are medians and ranges, not a valuation of any single property. The address list gives you the door-level picture, and the free checks take a full postcode.
