Overview

About 5 Sanderling Drive

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

5 Sanderling Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in St. Mellons, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF3 0DA). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility. The latest certificate (November 2012) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from November 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 116 m² it's 20.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (96 m² median across 13 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £371,000 is 33.5% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£223/sq ft) was about 59% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £278,000 in March 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
