About 2 Kings Court

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

2 Kings Court is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 1RF). It has a recorded floor area of 43 m² (around 463 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A. At 43 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 7 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 36–56 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (May 2020) shows a C (score 70). Earlier certificates rated it B (January 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average.

It hasn't traded since September 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £180,000 sits 115.6% above the 2001 sale of £83,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£180/sq ft) was about 60.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension, a porch and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
