Overview

About 12 Granville Avenue

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

12 Granville Avenue is a semi-detached house in Cardiff (CF5 1BW). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 4 certificates since April 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since September 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £446,000 sits 78.4% above the 2009 sale of £250,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs).
