About Flat 5

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

Flat 5 is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 5LE). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band B. At 80 m² this is the 4th smallest of 5 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 67–99 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (June 2025) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (September 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good.

At 80 m² it sits well below the postcode median (268 m² across 23 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sale on file: £285,000 in August 2021. Across the public record there are 6 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2011. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2002–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £347,000 is 21.8% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£331/sq ft) was about 37% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
