Overview

About Fossway

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

Fossway is a detached house in Shrivenham, Swindon, Swindon (SN6 8AS). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 85 m² it's 22% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (109 m² median across 8 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £406,000 sits 56.2% above the 2013 sale of £260,000.
