Overview

About 39 Ferndale Road

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

39 Ferndale Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Swindon (SN2 1BU). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility. The latest certificate (July 2024) shows a C (score 73). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85).

It hasn't traded since September 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. Today's modelled estimate of £235,000 sits 59.9% above the 2007 sale of £147,000.
