About 483 Cowbridge Road East

483 Cowbridge Road East is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Cardiff (CF5 1BA). It has a recorded floor area of 165 m² (around 1776 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since October 2014. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump.
