About 1 Gorsafle
1 Gorsafle is a detached house in Ystradgynlais, Swansea, Swansea (SA9 1PN). It has a recorded floor area of 177 m² (around 1905 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since November 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 177 m² the property is well over the postcode median (125 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £328,000 sits 95.2% above the 2008 sale of £168,000.
