Property investment stats for Gwersyllt, Wales

A complete guide to property investment in Gwersyllt.

Last updated: 18 September 2025

Investment summary

Gwersyllt offers a blend of affordability and stability that stands out in the local market. With a price-to-income ratio of 3.8, homes here are accessible for a wide range of buyers, and the median price per square foot of £221 per sq ft points to good value compared to many British regions. The area has seen capital growth over three years of 18.2%, with an annualised figure of 5.7%, suggesting that price appreciation has been steady, if not spectacular.

Liquidity is reasonable, with annual sales at 74 and homes spending a typical 53 days on the market before selling. A median discount to asking price of £5,000 (the typical achieved discount) gives buyers some negotiation room, but doesn't indicate a sluggish market.

Should you invest in Gwersyllt?

Opportunities

  • Strong family demand is supported by a families household percentile in the 90s, suggesting a solid base of long-term tenants or buyers.
  • The top-performing postcode district offers rental yields of 5.3%, making the area attractive for buy-to-let investors seeking income.
  • The current median asking sale price for a 3-bedroom house is £210,000, which is accessible for both first-time buyers and investors looking for entry-level opportunities.

Risks

  • Social rented housing is in the 90th percentile, which could affect the balance of private rental demand and long-term owner-occupier stability.
  • The degree-educated and professionals population percentiles are low, which may limit future price growth driven by high-earning buyers.
  • Private rented housing is in the bottom 20th percentile, so the rental market may be less liquid than in more transient or urban areas.

Outlook

Looking ahead, Gwersyllt is likely to continue offering steady, if unspectacular, price growth given the one-year capital growth of 0.5% and the established three-year trend. The family-oriented demographic is unlikely to change quickly, so demand for larger homes should remain resilient.

Rental investors can expect yields of 5.3% in the best local postcodes, but should be mindful that the overall private rental market is smaller than in many other parts of Britain. Affordability remains a key draw, with the price-to-income ratio of 3.8 and median sale price for a 3-bedroom house of £210,000 keeping entry costs reasonable.

While Gwersyllt may not deliver rapid capital gains, its combination of value and stability will appeal to investors with a long-term outlook.
