Overview

About 21 Briar Close

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

21 Briar Close is a semi-detached house in Cardiff (CF5 3TR). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since June 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
