Homes that sold twice
These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Penbont Road, Brecon values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Penbont Road, Brecon is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 18 | 52.9% | £142,000 | £32,000 – £250,000 |
| Semi-detached | 10 | 29.4% | £120,000 | £34,000 – £238,500 |
| Terraced | 6 | 17.6% | £135,000 | £39,000 – £230,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Penbont Road, Brecon
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 34 freehold — 0.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 34 | 100.0% | £136,500 |
A further 1 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Powys, 32.1% of 65,008 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 15.5% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Powys at £621 a month as of Jun 2026 — £461 for a one-bedroom home and £699 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £136,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 5.46% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.
Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of LD3, 1 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 1 violent, 0 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 0 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 100.0 times quieter.
Against the 133,169 residents the 2021 census counted in Powys, that is 0.01 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.
A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.

Within Brecon the street ranks 140 of 227 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £161,437 (-15.4%).
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.
The full range on record runs from £32,000 to £250,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.
Penbont Road, Brecon sits in Powys, in Wales.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Powys at 7.9 times median local earnings of £31,163 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

How many homes have sold in Penbont Road, Brecon?
34 sales are on record for Penbont Road, Brecon, the most recent completing on 1 May 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
