About Flat 1
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 1 is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Taffs Well, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF15 7PQ). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 431 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. The latest certificate (August 2017) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 40 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 5 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 33–45 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to D across 5 units on file.
At 40 m² it sits well below the postcode median (69 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). Most recent transfer: September 2021 at £115,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2002–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £127,000 is 10.4% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£267/sq ft) was about 67.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
