About 3 Salem Terrace
3 Salem Terrace is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Gwaelod-Y-Garth, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF15 9HX). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (October 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
