Overview

About 8 Ffordd Y Gamlas

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

8 Ffordd Y Gamlas is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Gowerton, Swansea, Swansea (SA4 3DT). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2024) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in May 2010 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89).

It hasn't traded since April 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 16.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £167,000 sits 51.8% above the 2007 sale of £110,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£186/sq ft) was about 23.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 55 m² it sits well below the postcode median (81 m² across 31 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 8 Ffordd Y Gamlas is modelled from its 55 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SA4 3DT. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 8 Ffordd Y Gamlas. 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 8 Ffordd Y Gamlas was lodged in May 2024 at band C and is valid until May 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 8 Ffordd Y Gamlas. 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 3DT.
Council tax band
8 Ffordd Y Gamlas 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.
