About 68 Edward Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
68 Edward Street is a semi-detached house in Pontardawe, Swansea, Swansea (SA8 3DD). It has a recorded floor area of 166 m² (around 1787 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since November 2000 — that's 26 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 166 m² the property is well over the postcode median (95 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £243,000 sits 341.8% above the 2000 sale of £55,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£31/sq ft) was about 74% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 68 Edward Street is modelled from its 166 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SA8 3DD. 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 68 Edward Street. 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 68 Edward Street was lodged in October 2015 at band C and expired in October 2025, 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 68 Edward Street. 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 3DD.
- Council tax band
- 68 Edward Street 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.
