It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C.

Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.

- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 7 Ashcroft Crescent is modelled from its 73 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CF5 3RJ. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 7 Ashcroft Crescent. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC

The latest one for 7 Ashcroft Crescent was lodged in March 2014 at band D and expired in March 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
