About 1 Caerwent Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Caerwent Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Cardiff (CF5 4QB). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (July 2020) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (October 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since June 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. Today's modelled estimate of £165,000 sits 87.5% above the 2007 sale of £88,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£139/sq ft) was about 17.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
