Overview

About 39 High Street

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

39 High Street is a mid-terrace house in Gorseinon, Swansea, Swansea (SA4 4BT). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2023) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2020. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump.

At 96 m² the property is well over the postcode median (49 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £143,000 sits 78.8% above the 2021 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£77/sq ft) was about 32.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, partial demolition and change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Most recent transfer: March 2021 at £80,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
