Overview

About 14 Baber Close

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

14 Baber Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Cardiff (CF23 9BX). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1999–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £261,000 sits 58.2% above the 2013 sale of £165,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in May 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.

How the estimate is made
The estimate for 14 Baber Close is modelled from its 63 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CF23 9BX. 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 14 Baber 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 14 Baber Close was lodged in February 2013 at band D and expired in February 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records

Area figures

Council tax band
14 Baber 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.
