Overview

About 24 Kensington Avenue

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

24 Kensington Avenue is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cardiff (CF5 1BU). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in December 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

Today's modelled estimate of £375,000 sits 63% above the 2015 sale of £230,000. On the market in April 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years.
