About 5 Convent Street
5 Convent Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Swansea (SA1 2BX). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since June 1999, a hold of 27 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. Today's modelled estimate of £126,000 sits 250% above the 1999 sale of £36,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£40/sq ft) was about 47% below the postcode norm.
