Overview

About 3 Botany Close

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

3 Botany Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Rustington, Littlehampton, Littlehampton (BN16 2BH). It has a recorded floor area of 250 m² (around 2686 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows a G (score 18), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to E (score 48), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views and a conservatory. Period features are noted in the property record.

It hasn't traded since August 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. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £1,222,000 sits 59.7% above the 2009 sale of £765,000. 5 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 0 refused.
