About 4 Cae Bach Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
4 Cae Bach Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Cardiff (CF5 4TU). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £278,000 sits 63.5% above the 2014 sale of £170,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£146/sq ft) was about 15% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Last changed hands 12 years ago, in October 2014.
