Overview

About 9 Cherrywood

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

9 Cherrywood is a two-bedroom detached house in Brighton (BN1 6UR). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in January 2012 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 66 m² this is the 5th smallest of 12 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 61–66 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 12 units on file.

Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 73% of similar EPCs). On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£429/sq ft) was about 52.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: July 2022 at £305,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
