About 5 Victoria Terrace
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Victoria Terrace is a mid-terrace house in Swansea (SA1 4LS). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2020) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump.
Held since August 2008 — that's 18 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. Across 1995–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £176,000 sits 81.4% above the 2008 sale of £97,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£93/sq ft) was about 21% below the postcode norm.
