Overview

About 35 Highcroft Villas

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

35 Highcroft Villas is an end-of-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 5PS). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (November 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and main heating dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 68), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 68 m² this is the 71st smallest of 108 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 21–226 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to B, with this unit at the bottom.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £355,000 sits 75.3% above the 2026 sale of £202,500.

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 35 Highcroft Villas is modelled from its 68 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN1 5PS. 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 35 Highcroft Villas. 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 35 Highcroft Villas was lodged in March 2015 at band F and expired in March 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 35 Highcroft Villas. 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 5PS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
