12 Riversdale, Llandaff, Cardiff, CF5 2QL

12 Riversdale is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Llandaff, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF5 2QL). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2012) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since April 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 72 m² the property is well over the postcode median (55 m² across 46 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1998–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £252,000 sits 60.5% above the 2008 sale of £157,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
