About 1a
1a is a three-bedroom detached house in Brighton (BN1 5JH). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1010 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2010) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from June 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
Untraded for 30 years, with the last transfer in February 1996. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time.
