About 5 Bryn Road
5 Bryn Road is a detached house in Aberystwyth (SY23 2EJ). It has a recorded floor area of 156 m² (around 1679 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since January 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £386,000 sits 191.3% above the 2001 sale of £132,500.
