Overview

About 255 Church Lane

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

255 Church Lane is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Lyminster, Littlehampton, Littlehampton (BN17 7QJ). It has a recorded floor area of 153 m² (around 1647 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views.

It hasn't traded since July 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £455,000 sits 85.7% above the 2008 sale of £245,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£149/sq ft) was about 59.4% below the postcode norm. At 153 m² it's 20.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (127 m² median across 10 EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2017.
