How Grove Terrace, Penarth prices moved

The chart tracks the median Grove Terrace, Penarth house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1997 to 2022. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Grove Terrace, Penarth is £350,000 in 2022; the lowest is £58,825 in 1997. Across the full 26-year record the cash median has moved from £58,825 to £350,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £124,727, so the real change over the whole record is +225.1% — about +4.83% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.

Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +97.2% in cash against +53.0% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

What sells here

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Grove Terrace, Penarth is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in Grove Terrace, Penarth

4 of the sales on record are leasehold and 103 freehold — 3.7% 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.

The median leasehold sale is £58,500 and the median freehold sale £192,000 — a gap of +228.2%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

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.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Vale of Glamorgan at £985 a month as of Jun 2026 — £729 for a one-bedroom home and £999 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £187,950 here, that rent is a gross yield of 6.29% 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 CF64, 107 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 40 violent, 4 burglary, 5 vehicle-related and 10 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.6 times quieter.

Against the 131,939 residents the 2021 census counted in Vale of Glamorgan, that is 0.81 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.

Grove Terrace, Penarth sits in Vale of Glamorgan, in Wales.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Vale of Glamorgan at 7.9 times median local earnings of £35,204 a year, measured to Sep 2025.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Grove Terrace, Penarth?

The median price paid in Grove Terrace, Penarth across every sale on the register is £187,950. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.

How many homes have sold in Grove Terrace, Penarth?

107 sales are on record for Grove Terrace, Penarth, the most recent completing on 6 Jun 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Grove Terrace, Penarth house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose +97.2% between 2012 and 2022. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +53.0%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Grove Terrace, Penarth house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £350,000, set in 2022. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

What is the price per square metre in Grove Terrace, Penarth?

£2,132 per square metre, from the 24 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 6 Jun 2025. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
