The estimate for 8 Oxford Street is modelled from its 52 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BN1 4LA. 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.

8 Oxford Street is a mid-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 4LA). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2026) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in June 2015 the rating was E, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. At 52 m² this is the 10th smallest of 25 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 35–75 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to B, with this unit at the top.
Across 2020–2025, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £240,000 is 22.6% below the 2025 sale of £310,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused, 1 pending. Past consents include change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An active application for change of use to residential is awaiting a decision. Most recent transfer was December 2025 at £310,000 — fresh data. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property.
