Overview

About 18 Caradoc Close

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

18 Caradoc Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in St. Mellons, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF3 0LQ). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since January 2013. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 89 m² the property is well over the postcode median (57 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On the market in September 2017 and unlisted since — roughly 9 years. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 1996–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £245,000 is 40% above the 2017 sale price.

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 18 Caradoc Close is modelled from its 89 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CF3 0LQ. 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. 5 sales are recorded for 18 Caradoc 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 18 Caradoc Close was lodged in February 2014 at band D and expired in February 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 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 18 Caradoc Close. 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 0LQ.
Council tax band
18 Caradoc Close 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.
