About 2 St Margarets Crescent
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 St Margarets Crescent is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Cardiff (CF23 5AU). It has a recorded floor area of 160 m² (around 1722 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

Today's modelled estimate of £534,000 sits 73.7% above the 2014 sale of £307,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£179/sq ft) was about 25% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension and an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in January 2014 and unlisted since — roughly 13 years.

- Where sold prices come from
