Overview

About 129a

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

129a is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Swindon (SN2 1AD). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2022) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (July 2019); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since July 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 105 m² the property is well over the postcode median (66 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £205,000 sits 226% above the 1997 sale of £62,892. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£56/sq ft) was about 59.6% below the postcode norm.
