Overview

About 3 De La Beche Road

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

3 De La Beche Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sketty, Swansea, Swansea (SA2 9AR). It has a recorded floor area of 153 m² (around 1647 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in November 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
