The estimate for 31a is modelled from its 41 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN14 7AD. 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.

31a has no Land Registry sales on file, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands since registration began.
That can mean the property has never traded since the registry began publishing in 1995, was a new build that hasn't been registered yet, or is held in the same hands long-term.

31a is a semi-detached house in Worthing (BN14 7AD). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 441 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (March 2024) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (April 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). Main heating runs on lpg. At 41 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 3 units on EPC record in 31a, where floor areas span 31–83 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 3 units on file.
At 41 m² it sits well below the postcode median (65 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: new windows approved in 2010. Past consents include new windows and subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
