57b, New Road, Littlehampton, BN17 5AU
About 57b
57b is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Littlehampton (BN17 5AU). It has a recorded floor area of 21 m² (around 222 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 21 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (21–147 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. The property has an EV charger on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (December 2009) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from December 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since April 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £105,000 sits 296.2% above the 2001 sale of £26,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£119/sq ft) was about 26.6% below the postcode norm. At 21 m² it sits well below the postcode median (63 m² across 26 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs).
