15 Coed Bach, Pontarddulais, Swansea, SA4 8RB

15 Coed Bach is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Pontarddulais, Swansea, Swansea (SA4 8RB). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1206 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since May 2012. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 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. At 112 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £189,000 sits 84.4% above the 2007 sale of £102,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£85/sq ft) was about 27.4% below the postcode norm.
