53 Lon Y Wern, Alltwen, Pontardawe, Swansea, SA8 3BL
About 53 Lon Y Wern
53 Lon Y Wern is a semi-detached house in Pontardawe, Swansea, Swansea (SA8 3BL). It has a recorded floor area of 139 m² (around 1496 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows a C (score 73). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). The latest certificate is from May 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since May 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 139 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £224,000 sits 600% above the 1996 sale of £32,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£21/sq ft) was about 72.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
