About 50 Cae Lewis
50 Cae Lewis is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Tongwynlais, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF15 7LR). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2009) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a corner plot.
It hasn't traded since December 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 58 m² it's 16% larger than the typical home in the postcode (50 m² median across 19 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, a porch and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2008–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £199,000 is 38.2% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£231/sq ft) was about 91.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
