About 8 Gileston Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Gileston Road is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cardiff (CF11 9JS). It has a recorded floor area of 131 m² (around 1410 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (June 2013) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since April 2012. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

- Where sold prices come from
