About 3 Branwen Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Branwen Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Cardiff (CF5 4NE). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since September 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2005–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £354,000 sits 63.9% above the 2016 sale of £216,000.
