Overview

About 17 Cottingham Drive

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

17 Cottingham Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Pontprennau, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF23 8QG). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (July 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89). The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £303,000 is 10.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£255/sq ft) was about 28.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
