What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Pleasant Heights, Porth 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 | 38 | 59.4% | £185,000 | £22,500 – £390,000 |
| Semi-detached | 26 | 40.6% | £65,500 | £31,000 – £245,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Pleasant Heights, Porth
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 64 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 | 64 | 100.0% | £110,000 |
| New build | 23 | 35.9% | £59,500 |
| Existing home | 41 | 64.1% | £175,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -66.0%. 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.
A further 4 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.

Living in Pleasant Heights, Porth
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Bridgend, 44.7% of 65,205 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 3.9% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 350 | 0.5% |
| B | 6,643 | 10.2% |
| C | 22,152 | 34.0% |

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 £110,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 8.23% 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 CF39, 71 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 28 violent, 2 burglary, 1 vehicle-related and 12 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.4 times quieter.
Against the 145,488 residents the 2021 census counted in Bridgend, that is 0.49 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.
