About 16 Birchtree Close

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

16 Birchtree Close is an end-of-terrace house in Sketty, Swansea, Swansea (SA2 8LJ). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.
