About 1 Ash Street
1 Ash Street is an end-of-terrace house in Cwm, Ebbw Vale, Ebbw Vale (NP23 7RQ). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in August 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £116,000 sits 480% above the 2001 sale of £20,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£25/sq ft) was about 72.2% below the postcode norm.
