Overview

About 5 Brook Road

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

5 Brook Road is a mid-terrace house in Fairwater, Cardiff, Cardiff (CF5 3AW). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2013) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since May 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £244,000 sits 378.4% above the 1997 sale of £51,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£67/sq ft) was about 60.4% below the postcode norm. At 71 m² it's 15.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (84 m² median across 20 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs).
