Overview

About 3 Canfield Close

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

3 Canfield Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Brighton (BN2 4DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since September 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £349,000 sits 66.2% above the 2007 sale of £210,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£355/sq ft) was about 15.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 55 m² it's 20.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (70 m² median across 18 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs).
