Overview

About 23 Cottingham Drive

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

23 Cottingham Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Pontprennau, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF23 8QG). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1119 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2021) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good.
