About 7 Cedars Gardens

7 Cedars Gardens is a five-bedroom detached house in Brighton (BN1 6YD). It has a recorded floor area of 221 m² (around 2379 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (January 2025) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in July 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good.

It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1997–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,172,000 sits 98.6% above the 2009 sale of £590,000. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 83% of similar EPCs).
