Overview

About 5 Cedarwood

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

5 Cedarwood is a detached house in Brighton (BN1 6UH). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. At 65 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (65–72 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (55 versus a best of 77). The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since October 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
