Overview

About 20 Golden Lane

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

20 Golden Lane is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 2BN). It has a recorded floor area of 153 m² (around 1646 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band F. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a balcony and a basement. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows a C (score 72). The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 153 m² it's 18.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (129 m² median across 19 EPCs). Across 1999–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £718,000 is 19.3% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£366/sq ft) was about 37.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in August 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
