Overview

About 8a

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

8a is a mid-terrace house in Gorseinon, Swansea, Swansea (SA4 4AA). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band A. At 52 m² this is the 13th smallest of 38 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 30–142 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £105,000 is 12.5% below the 2023 sale of £120,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£214/sq ft) was about 149.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 52 m² it's 17.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (63 m² median across 37 EPCs). Sold November 2023 for £120,000.
