Overview

About 14 Station Road

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

14 Station Road is a semi-detached house in Preston, Brighton, Brighton (BN1 6SF). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 74 m² this is the 4th smallest of 25 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 57–301 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 25 units on file.

It hasn't traded since May 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 £349,000 sits 203.5% above the 1999 sale of £115,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£144/sq ft) was about 41.1% below the postcode norm. At 74 m² it's 15.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (88 m² median across 24 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).
