About 15 Florence Court
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
15 Florence Court is an end-of-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 6PE). It has a recorded floor area of 33 m² (around 355 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 33 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (33–61 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (March 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 56). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 33 m² it sits well below the postcode median (74 m² across 52 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).
