About 4 Birch Grove Crescent
4 Birch Grove Crescent is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Brighton (BN1 8DN). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £439,000 sits 58.2% above the 2016 sale of £277,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£339/sq ft) was about 52.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 76 m² it's 18.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (64 m² median across 41 EPCs). Last sold in January 2016, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
