About 42 Goetre Fawr Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
42 Goetre Fawr Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Killay, Swansea, Swansea (SA2 7QU). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £225,000 sits 80% above the 2014 sale of £125,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£116/sq ft) was about 35.6% below the postcode norm. Last sold in June 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
