About 3 Cornwood Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Cornwood Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Cardiff (CF5 3QT). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1060 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £275,000 sits 50.7% above the 2007 sale of £182,500. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).
