About 1 Dovercourt House
1 Dovercourt House is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cardiff (CF11 0AS). It has a recorded floor area of 31 m² (around 334 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. At 31 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across 1 Dovercourt House (31–75 m²). The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (June 2019) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in May 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, lighting went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. Main heating runs on electricity.
Today's modelled estimate of £136,000 is 22.3% below the 2009 sale of £175,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£524/sq ft) was about 137.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 31 m² it sits well below the postcode median (47 m² across 47 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
