Overview

About 1 Longford Crescent

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

1 Longford Crescent is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in St. Thomas, Swansea, Swansea (SA1 8HS). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 80 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (80–150 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to D, with this unit at the top. Other recorded features include a balcony and notable views. The latest certificate (May 2019) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2016 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76).

It hasn't traded since June 1995, a hold of 31 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £127,000 sits 464.4% above the 1995 sale of £22,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£26/sq ft) was about 55.2% below the postcode norm. At 80 m² it sits well below the postcode median (127 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
