Your note and figure are shown publicly on this page.
The estimate for 5a is modelled from its 46 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN1 3DJ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

5a has no Land Registry sales on file, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands since registration began.

5a is a mid-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 3DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 46 m² this is the 22nd smallest of 45 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 27–172 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a C (score 73). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since December 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
