About 23 Alan Way
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
23 Alan Way is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Brighton (BN2 5PF). It has a recorded floor area of 123 m² (around 1324 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2025) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Good.
It hasn't traded since November 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 £460,000 sits 119% above the 2009 sale of £210,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£159/sq ft) was about 27.6% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 79% of similar EPCs).

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 23 Alan Way is modelled from its 123 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN2 5PF. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 23 Alan Way. 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 23 Alan Way was lodged in May 2025 at band C and is valid until May 2035. 5 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 23 Alan Way. 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 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN2 5PF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 23 Alan Way is in council tax band D. 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.
