Overview

About 16 Riverside

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

16 Riverside is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Littlehampton (BN17 5DE). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 429 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2009) shows a G (score 20), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 55), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 40 m² it's 17.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (34 m² median across 52 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1998–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £196,000 is 43.1% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£319/sq ft) was about 18.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
