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 6DL). It has a recorded floor area of 27 m² (around 291 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 27 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 16 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 25–215 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to D across 16 units on file.

It hasn't traded since September 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £155,000 sits 342.9% above the 1999 sale of £35,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£120/sq ft) was about 64.5% below the postcode norm. At 27 m² it sits well below the postcode median (72 m² across 58 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2021. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Flat 2 is modelled from its 27 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN1 6DL. 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 May 2015 at band E and expired in May 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. 1 application 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 35 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN1 6DL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
