About 21 Bennett Road

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

21 Bennett Road is a mid-terrace house in Brighton (BN2 5JL). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 879 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows a C (score 73). The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 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. Across 2002–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £481,000 sits 57.7% above the 2009 sale of £305,000.
