About 12b

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

12b is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Brighton (BN2 0EB). It has a recorded floor area of 44 m² (around 474 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2018) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in January 2016 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 44 m² this is the 20th smallest of 70 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 25–212 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in May 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
