147 Penarth Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cardiff (CF11 6JU). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since April 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.
