Overview

About 24 Merthyr Road

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

24 Merthyr Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Tongwynlais, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF15 7LH). It has a recorded floor area of 114 m² (around 1227 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2023) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 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. At 114 m² the property is well over the postcode median (63 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £292,000 sits 62.2% above the 2007 sale of £180,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£147/sq ft) was about 25% below the postcode norm.
