About 34 Argyle Street
34 Argyle Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Swindon (SN2 8AR). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2019) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor.

Held since October 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £206,000 sits 92.5% above the 2008 sale of £107,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£127/sq ft) was about 17.9% below the postcode norm.
