Your note and figure are shown publicly on this page.
The estimate for 26a is modelled from its 38 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BN1 4JN. 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.

26a is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 4JN). It has a recorded floor area of 38 m² (around 409 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 38 m² this is the 9th smallest of 39 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 14–141 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to B across 39 units on file.
Across 2005–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £262,000 is 23.6% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£518/sq ft) was about 46.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in May 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. At 38 m² it's 16.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (46 m² median across 38 EPCs).
26a's EPC is over a decade old — improvements since won't be reflected.
