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.

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.
