Overview

About 44 Carmarthen Road

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

44 Carmarthen Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Pontarddulais, Swansea, Swansea (SA4 0TU). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in September 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Average; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views.

At 120 m² the property is well over the postcode median (91 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £206,000 sits 56.1% above the 2015 sale of £132,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£102/sq ft) was about 30.3% below the postcode norm. Last sold in December 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

How to read this page

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 44 Carmarthen Road is modelled from its 120 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SA4 0TU. 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 44 Carmarthen Road. 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 44 Carmarthen Road was lodged in March 2015 at band D and expired in March 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 44 Carmarthen Road. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from SA4 0TU.
Council tax band
44 Carmarthen Road 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.
