16 Granville Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Cardiff (CF5 1BW). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
