Overview

About 3 Castle Crescent

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

3 Castle Crescent is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Rumney, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF3 4FU). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since September 2010. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £253,000 sits 76.3% above the 2010 sale of £143,500.

Method

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 3 Castle Crescent is modelled from its 84 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CF3 4FU. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 3 Castle Crescent. 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 3 Castle Crescent was lodged in February 2014 at band E 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 3 Castle Crescent. 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 4FU.
Council tax band
3 Castle Crescent is in council tax band E. 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.
