Overview

About 10 The Plaza

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

10 The Plaza is a mid-terrace house in Swindon (SN1 1HE). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2020) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). Main heating runs on electricity. At 46 m² this is the 11th smallest of 54 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 35–136 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 54 units on file.

It hasn't traded since July 2007, a hold of 19 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 46 m² it sits well below the postcode median (71 m² across 55 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.7% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£220/sq ft) was about 21.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
