About 16 Bernard Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16 Bernard Street is a mid-terrace house in Uplands, Swansea, Swansea (SA2 0HU). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. At 58 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (58–197 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 18 units on file. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75).
Untraded for 25 years, with the last transfer in May 2001. 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 £131,000 sits 162% above the 2001 sale of £50,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£80/sq ft) was about 18.1% below the postcode norm. At 58 m² it sits well below the postcode median (179 m² across 17 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: subdivision approved in 2001. Past consents include subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
