5 Colonel Road is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Betws, Ammanford, Ammanford (SA18 2HB). It has a recorded floor area of 115 m² (around 1238 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory and outbuildings.

It hasn't traded since December 1999, a hold of 27 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 £218,000 sits 363.8% above the 1999 sale of £47,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£38/sq ft) was about 58.5% below the postcode norm. At 115 m² it's 26.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (91 m² median across 9 EPCs).
