Overview

About Altamar

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

Altamar is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Swansea (SA1 8PP). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 539 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band D. At 50 m² this is the 49th smallest of 80 units on EPC record in Altamar, where floor areas span 21–110 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

11 years since the last transfer (April 2015). Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 90% of similar EPCs). Across 2005–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at -2.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £142,000 is 34.7% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£196/sq ft) was about 23.9% below the postcode norm.
