Overview

About 15a

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

15a is a mid-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 1AD). It has a recorded floor area of 36 m² (around 391 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
