About 68 Cricklade Road

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

68 Cricklade Road is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Swindon (SN2 8AF). It has a recorded floor area of 29 m² (around 312 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1983-1990. At 29 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (29–88 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 14 units on file. The latest certificate (February 2024) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). Main heating runs on electricity.

Across 2002–2024, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.4% per year.
