Overview

About 14 Orchard Park

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

14 Orchard Park is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in St. Mellons, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF3 0AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings. The home occupies a corner plot.

Across 2015–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.9% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£315/sq ft) was about 84% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold November 2022 for £227,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 14 Orchard Park is modelled from its 67 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CF3 0AQ. 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 Orchard Park. 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 Orchard Park was lodged in May 2015 at band D and expired in May 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 5 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 14 Orchard Park. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from CF3 0AQ.
Council tax band
14 Orchard Park is in council tax band C. 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.
