About 21 Cedar Grove
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
21 Cedar Grove is a semi-detached house in Cardiff (CF5 3RR). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since March 2015. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 29 years, with the last transfer in September 1997. 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 £176,000 sits 304.6% above the 1997 sale of £43,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£62/sq ft) was about 64.7% below the postcode norm. At 65 m² it sits well below the postcode median (95 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
