Local market context
42a is an end-of-terrace house in Port Tennant, Swansea, Swansea (SA1 8NE). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 65 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 26 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 49–122 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 26 units on file. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
