About 3 Fforest Road

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

3 Fforest Road is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Pontarddulais, Swansea, Swansea (SA4 0TN). It has a recorded floor area of 178 m² (around 1916 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Last sold in September 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
