5 Clos Helyg, Gowerton, Swansea, SA4 3GH

5 Clos Helyg is a detached house in Gowerton, Swansea, Swansea (SA4 3GH). It has a recorded floor area of 183 m² (around 1970 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 183 m² the property is well over the postcode median (56 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £424,000 sits 236.5% above the 1999 sale of £126,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£64/sq ft) was about 40.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2001.
