Overview

About 4 Orchard Close

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

4 Orchard Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Marshfield, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF3 2UA). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2009) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in October 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £316,000 sits 50.5% above the 2007 sale of £210,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£201/sq ft) was about 17.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 97 m² it's 22.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (125 m² median across 4 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs).
