Overview

About 17 Downlands Avenue

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

17 Downlands Avenue is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Worthing (BN14 9HD). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2011–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £360,000 is 32.4% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£356/sq ft) was about 63.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 11 years ago, in January 2016.

How to read this page

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 17 Downlands Avenue is modelled from its 71 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BN14 9HD. 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 17 Downlands 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 17 Downlands Avenue was lodged in April 2016 at band D and expired in April 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 17 Downlands 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 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN14 9HD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
17 Downlands 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.
