About 23 Sanderling Drive
23 Sanderling Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in St. Mellons, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF3 0DA). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1036 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2011) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since December 2008. Between certificates, main heating went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from June 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £280,000 sits 93.1% above the 2009 sale of £145,000.
