Overview

About 87 Freshfield Road

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

87 Freshfield Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Brighton (BN2 0BL). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (October 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include notable views.

It hasn't traded since March 2007, a hold of 19 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. Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £297,000 sits 98% above the 2007 sale of £150,000. At 73 m² it sits well below the postcode median (157 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 87 Freshfield Road is modelled from its 73 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BN2 0BL. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 87 Freshfield Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 87 Freshfield Road was lodged in July 2026 at band D and is valid until July 2036. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 87 Freshfield Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN2 0BL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
87 Freshfield Road is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
