28b is an end-of-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 3TL). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. At 58 m² this is the 47th smallest of 76 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 30–172 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in May 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since March 2003 — that's 23 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £368,000 sits 209.2% above the 2003 sale of £119,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£191/sq ft) was about 45.7% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
