Overview

About Flat 2

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

Flat 2 is an end-of-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 5DB). It has a recorded floor area of 32 m² (around 340 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 32 m² this is the 5th smallest of 10 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 19–106 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 10 units on file. The latest certificate (February 2010) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). The latest certificate is from February 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since April 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £220,000 sits 331.4% above the 1997 sale of £51,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£150/sq ft) was about 60.5% below the postcode norm. At 32 m² it sits well below the postcode median (56 m² across 81 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

Method

How 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 Flat 2 is modelled from its 32 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN1 5DB. 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 Flat 2. 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 Flat 2 was lodged in February 2010 at band D and expired in February 2020, 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 Flat 2. 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 34 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN1 5DB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Flat 2 is in council tax band B. 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.
