Overview

About 143a

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

143a is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 2DA). It has a recorded floor area of 32 m² (around 344 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 32 m² this is the 5th smallest of 6 units on EPC record in 143a, where floor areas span 17–38 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (61 versus a best of 79). The latest certificate (December 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since May 2000 — that's 26 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £446,000 is 48.7% above the 2000 sale price.
