Overview

About 28 Upper High Street

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

28 Upper High Street is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Worthing (BN11 1DL). It has a recorded floor area of 29 m² (around 312 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 29 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (29–142 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to B across 29 units on file. The latest certificate (August 2020) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in September 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, lighting went from Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Average; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). Main heating runs on electricity.

At 29 m² it sits well below the postcode median (82 m² across 28 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension and subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2019–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.4% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£721/sq ft) was about 266.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold March 2021 for £225,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
