About Cwm Dulais
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Cwm Dulais is a semi-detached house in Hay-On-Wye, Hereford, Hereford (HR3 5AS). It has a recorded floor area of 261 m² (around 2809 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since November 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 261 m² the property is well over the postcode median (96 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £438,000 sits 642.4% above the 1996 sale of £59,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£21/sq ft) was about 89.9% below the postcode norm.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Cwm Dulais is modelled from its 261 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HR3 5AS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Cwm Dulais. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Cwm Dulais was lodged in July 2013 at band D and expired in July 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Cwm Dulais. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from HR3 5AS. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Cwm Dulais is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
