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.
