About 22 Cromwell
22 Cromwell is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Freshbrook, Swindon, Swindon (SN5 8LZ). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. Earlier certificates rated it C (May 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £357,000 sits 88.9% above the 2009 sale of £189,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£144/sq ft) was about 17% below the postcode norm.
