Local market context
1 Royal Sovereign Apartments is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Pentrechwyth, Swansea, Swansea (SA1 7FH). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 431 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band C. At 40 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in 1 Royal Sovereign Apartments, where floor areas span 37–80 m². On EPC score it ranks last in the building (69 versus a best of 74). The latest certificate (March 2026) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since April 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£262/sq ft) was about 19.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
