About 14 Arlington Crescent
14 Arlington Crescent is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in East Preston, Littlehampton, Littlehampton (BN16 1DL). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since June 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2006–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at -3.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £332,000 sits 89.7% above the 2009 sale of £175,000.
