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.
