Overview

About 8 The Excelsior

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

8 The Excelsior is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Patcham, Brighton, Brighton (BN1 8QX). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since March 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
