Overview

About 16 Ruston Road

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

16 Ruston Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Port Tennant, Swansea, Swansea (SA1 8DE). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2012) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (October 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
