Overview

About 29 Widdicombe Way

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

29 Widdicombe Way is a five-bedroom mid-terrace house in Brighton (BN2 4TH). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2020) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since June 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £401,000 sits 108.9% above the 2009 sale of £192,000. At 96 m² it's 20.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (80 m² median across 36 EPCs). 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.
