About 43a

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

43a is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 4SB). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68).
