Overview

About 2 Lon Y Wern

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

2 Lon Y Wern is a two-bedroom detached house in Pontardawe, Swansea, Swansea (SA8 3BJ). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in February 2007. 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 19.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £210,000 sits 52.2% above the 2007 sale of £138,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£176/sq ft) was about 45.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs).

How to read this page

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 2 Lon Y Wern is modelled from its 73 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SA8 3BJ. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 2 Lon Y Wern. 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 2 Lon Y Wern was lodged in October 2014 at band E and expired in October 2024, 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. 1 application is matched to 2 Lon Y Wern. 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 3BJ.
Council tax band
2 Lon Y Wern is in council tax band D. 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.
