Overview

About 12 Forest Oak Close

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

12 Forest Oak Close is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cardiff (CF23 6QN). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since August 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 69 m² this is the 5th smallest of 28 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 66–77 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 28 units on file.

Across 2016–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.8% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£275/sq ft) was about 75.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold September 2022 for £204,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 12 Forest Oak Close is modelled from its 69 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CF23 6QN. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 12 Forest Oak Close. 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 12 Forest Oak Close was lodged in June 2016 at band D and expired in June 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 12 Forest Oak Close. 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 6QN.
Council tax band
12 Forest Oak Close is in council tax band D. 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.
