Overview

About 72 Marlborough Road

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

72 Marlborough Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cardiff (CF23 5BY). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1585 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 72 Marlborough Road is modelled from its 147 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CF23 5BY. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 72 Marlborough Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 72 Marlborough Road was lodged in July 2010 at band E and expired in July 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 72 Marlborough Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from CF23 5BY.
Council tax band
72 Marlborough Road is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
