Overview

About 16 Buckingham Lodge

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

16 Buckingham Lodge is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Brighton (BN1 3PL). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a G (score 14), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at G across 3 certificates since August 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 57), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 64 m² this is the 21st smallest of 24 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 35–70 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (14 versus a best of 75). Other recorded features include a balcony.
