About 8 Llys Tawel
8 Llys Tawel is a semi-detached house in Ystradgynlais, Swansea, Swansea (SA9 1BL). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 442 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2009) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 48).
