Overview

About 3 Derwen Road

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

3 Derwen Road is a semi-detached house in Pontardawe, Swansea, Swansea (SA8 3AU). It has a recorded floor area of 124 m² (around 1340 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 56), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since September 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £213,000 sits 150.6% above the 2009 sale of £85,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£63/sq ft) was about 52.5% below the postcode norm. At 124 m² it's 17.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (106 m² median across 33 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 3 Derwen Road is modelled from its 124 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SA8 3AU. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 3 Derwen Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 3 Derwen Road was lodged in July 2009 at band F and expired in July 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 3 Derwen Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from SA8 3AU.
Council tax band
3 Derwen Road is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
