Overview

About 74b

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

74b is a two-bedroom detached house in Sketty, Swansea, Swansea (SA2 9BW). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. At 60 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (60–130 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (February 2024) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since August 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

Held since July 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £126,000 sits 281.8% above the 1996 sale of £33,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£51/sq ft) was about 64.7% below the postcode norm. At 60 m² it sits well below the postcode median (86 m² across 13 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 85% of similar EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 74b is modelled from its 60 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SA2 9BW. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 74b. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 74b was lodged in February 2024 at band C and is valid until February 2034. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 74b. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from SA2 9BW.
Council tax band
74b is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
