16 Paramount, Spring Gardens, Swindon, SN1 2SA
About 16 Paramount
16 Paramount is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Swindon (SN1 2SA). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. At 72 m² this is the 15th smallest of 18 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 49–113 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 18 units on file. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since February 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. Today's modelled estimate of £134,000 sits 101.5% above the 2008 sale of £66,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£86/sq ft) was about 21% below the postcode norm. At 72 m² it's 16.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (62 m² median across 17 EPCs).
