About 2 Bayswater Road
2 Bayswater Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Sketty, Swansea, Swansea (SA2 9HA). It has a recorded floor area of 172 m² (around 1851 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (September 2012); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has an EV charger on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a balcony and notable views.
At 172 m² the property is well over the postcode median (104 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Most recent transfer: December 2023 at £469,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021.
