How Acorn Close, Pontyclun prices moved

The chart tracks the median Acorn Close, Pontyclun house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2002 to 2007. 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 Acorn Close, Pontyclun is £249,950 in 2007; the lowest is £179,995 in 2002. Across the full 6-year record the cash median has moved from £179,995 to £249,950.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £347,186, so the real change over the whole record is +25.2% — about +4.59% 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: +38.9% in cash against +25.2% 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.

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 Acorn Close, Pontyclun values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

Ownership and new build in Acorn Close, Pontyclun

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 79 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.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -25.1%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Bridgend at £754 a month as of Jun 2026 — £555 for a one-bedroom home and £806 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £198,995 here, that rent is a gross yield of 4.55% 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 CF72, 40 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 17 violent, 0 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 3 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 4.2 times quieter.

Against the 145,488 residents the 2021 census counted in Bridgend, that is 0.27 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.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Acorn Close, Pontyclun?

The median price paid in Acorn Close, Pontyclun across every sale on the register is £198,995. 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 Acorn Close, Pontyclun?

79 sales are on record for Acorn Close, Pontyclun, the most recent completing on 28 Mar 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

In cash, the median rose +38.9% between 2002 and 2007. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +25.2%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Acorn Close, Pontyclun house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £249,950, set in 2007. 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 Acorn Close, Pontyclun?

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 28 Mar 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.
