Overview

About 162 Mackie Avenue

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

162 Mackie Avenue is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Brighton (BN1 8SB). It has a recorded floor area of 123 m² (around 1324 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2020) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in August 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81).

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 123 m² the property is well over the postcode median (59 m² across 35 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2009–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 18.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £465,000 sits 130.8% above the 2009 sale of £201,450.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 162 Mackie Avenue is modelled from its 123 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BN1 8SB. 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 162 Mackie 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 162 Mackie Avenue was lodged in October 2020 at band C and is valid until October 2030. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 162 Mackie 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 14 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN1 8SB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
162 Mackie Avenue is in council tax band C. 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.
