About 5 Grenfell Town
5 Grenfell Town is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bonymaen, Swansea, Swansea (SA1 7AE). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2023) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in December 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump.
Held since May 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£138/sq ft) was about 37.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 56 m² it's 18.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (69 m² median across 19 EPCs).
