About 12a
12a is a six-bedroom detached house in Abercrave, Swansea, Swansea (SA9 1XP). It has a recorded floor area of 359 m² (around 3864 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 56), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
