Overview

About 25 Beechwood Avenue

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

25 Beechwood Avenue is a four-bedroom detached house in Brighton (BN1 8ED). It has a recorded floor area of 168 m² (around 1808 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The property has an EV charger on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The home occupies a corner plot. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 168 m² the property is well over the postcode median (114 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2015–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.5% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£502/sq ft) was about 40.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: a loft conversion refused in 2002. Most recent transfer: July 2022 at £907,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 25 Beechwood Avenue is modelled from its 168 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BN1 8ED. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 25 Beechwood Avenue. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 25 Beechwood Avenue was lodged in May 2015 at band D and expired in May 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 25 Beechwood Avenue. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN1 8ED, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
25 Beechwood Avenue is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
