Overview

About 8 Queenwood Close

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

8 Queenwood Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Penylan, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF23 9JH). It has a recorded floor area of 190 m² (around 2045 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in June 2014 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Poor. Main heating runs on bulk wood pellets. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Across 1996–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £861,000 is 23.9% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£340/sq ft) was about 31.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £695,000 in August 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Where sold prices come from
