Overview

About 39 Lon Hir

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

39 Lon Hir is a semi-detached house in Pontardawe, Swansea, Swansea (SA8 3DE). It has a recorded floor area of 149 m² (around 1604 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 95), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since September 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 149 m² the property is well over the postcode median (99 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £234,000 sits 1633.3% above the 1997 sale of £13,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£8/sq ft) was about 92.2% below the postcode norm.

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 39 Lon Hir is modelled from its 149 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SA8 3DE. 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 39 Lon Hir. 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 39 Lon Hir was lodged in November 2015 at band D and expired in November 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. None is matched to 39 Lon Hir. 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 3DE.
Council tax band
39 Lon Hir 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.
