About 1 Hertford Road
1 Hertford Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Brighton (BN1 7GG). It has a recorded floor area of 132 m² (around 1416 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63). The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
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. At 132 m² the property is well over the postcode median (90 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £565,000 sits 76.6% above the 2009 sale of £320,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£226/sq ft) was about 29.7% below the postcode norm.
