8 Castle Avenue, Rumney, Cardiff, CF3 4FT

8 Castle Avenue is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Rumney, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF3 4FT). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since May 1995 — that's 31 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £198,000 sits 408.3% above the 1995 sale of £38,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£45/sq ft) was about 68.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
