About 7 Canfield Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
7 Canfield Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Brighton (BN2 4DN). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since September 2013. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1995–2020, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £469,000 is 26.1% above the 2020 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£293/sq ft) was about 26.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: July 2020 at £372,000.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 7 Canfield Road is modelled from its 118 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BN2 4DN. 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 7 Canfield 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 7 Canfield Road was lodged in June 2015 at band E and expired in June 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 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 7 Canfield 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 31 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN2 4DN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 7 Canfield Road is in council tax band C. 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.
