About 8 Reigate Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Reigate Road is a mid-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 5AJ). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 581 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 54 m² this is the 5th smallest of 31 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 45–147 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 54 m² it sits well below the postcode median (103 m² across 30 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £300,000 is 14.9% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£449/sq ft) was about 30.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in April 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 8 Reigate Road is modelled from its 54 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN1 5AJ. 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 8 Reigate Road. 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 8 Reigate Road was lodged in June 2015 at band E and expired in June 2025, 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 8 Reigate Road. 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 36 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN1 5AJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Reigate Road is in council tax band A. 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.
