About 31 King Edward Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
31 King Edward Avenue is a six-bedroom semi-detached house in Worthing (BN14 8DB). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1112 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement.
It hasn't traded since December 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 103 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £451,000 sits 93.6% above the 2009 sale of £233,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£210/sq ft) was about 24% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 31 King Edward Avenue is modelled from its 103 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BN14 8DB. 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 31 King Edward 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 31 King Edward Avenue was lodged in April 2009 at band D and expired in April 2019, 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. None is matched to 31 King Edward 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN14 8DB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 31 King Edward Avenue is in council tax band D. 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.
