Overview

About 15 Ocean Buildings

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

15 Ocean Buildings is a two-bedroom property in Cardiff (CF10 5AY). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (March 2026) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. At 69 m² this is the 8th smallest of 28 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 54–108 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top.

It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 70% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £170,000 is 13.3% above the 2007 sale price.
