About 8 Fleet Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Fleet Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Swansea (SA1 3UX). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2017) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (September 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The home occupies a corner plot.
Held since September 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £146,000 is 16.8% above the 2007 sale price.
