    Outcome in report

    THE TREE IS A LARGE BAY TREE IN THE BACK GARDEN OF THE ABOVE ADDRESS. IT STANDS VERY CLOSE TO THE SIDE WALL OF THE NEIGHBOURING PROPERTY WHICH IS THE REAR OF LLANDAFF INSTITUTE. THE BRANCHES ON THAT SIDE COMPLETELY OVERLAP THE ROOF, LYING ON IT OVER A LARGE AREA. THE TREE HAS GROWN TOO BIG FOR THE SPACE IT OCCUPIES, CASTING SHADE OVER A LARGE PART OF THE GARDEN AND TAKING UP MOISTURE NEEDED BY OTHER PLANTS. WE WISH TO HAVE THE TREE FELLED TO THE GROUND. ACORN TREE SERVICES HAVE ATTENDED AND ADVISED THAT THIS IS REASONABLE GIVEN ITS SIZE AND POSITION. THERE IS NO TPO.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 St Marys is modelled from its 53 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CF5 2EB. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. No sale is recorded for 1 St Marys, which usually means it hasn't changed hands since 1995 or the sale was not for value. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 St Marys was lodged in August 2023 at band D and is valid until August 2033. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 St Marys. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from CF5 2EB.
Council tax band
1 St Marys is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
