Overview

About 8 Powys Gardens

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

8 Powys Gardens is a mid-terrace house in Townhill, Swansea, Swansea (SA1 6PL). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2012) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
