About 3 Earle Place
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Earle Place is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cardiff (CF5 1NZ). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1259 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
