Overview

About 15 Derwen Road

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

15 Derwen Road is a semi-detached house in Pontardawe, Swansea, Swansea (SA8 3AU). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 960 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2010) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 56). The latest certificate is from August 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since January 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £214,000 sits 52.9% above the 2007 sale of £140,000. At 89 m² it's 18.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (110 m² median across 33 EPCs).
