Overview

About 85 Windway Road

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

85 Windway Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Cardiff (CF5 1AH). It has a recorded floor area of 148 m² (around 1592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 54). The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in June 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 148 m² it's 29% larger than the typical home in the postcode (115 m² median across 6 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.
