Overview

About 28 Prestonville Court

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

28 Prestonville Court is an end-of-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 3UG). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. At 83 m² this is the 33rd smallest of 47 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 16–94 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (41 versus a best of 78). The latest certificate (July 2016) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 26 years, with the last transfer in August 2000. 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 £342,000 sits 232% above the 2000 sale of £103,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£115/sq ft) was about 53.3% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 28 Prestonville Court is modelled from its 83 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN1 3UG. 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.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 28 Prestonville Court. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 28 Prestonville Court was lodged in July 2016 at band E and expired in July 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 28 Prestonville Court. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 32 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN1 3UG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
28 Prestonville Court is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
