Overview

About 2 Longhill Road

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

2 Longhill Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Ovingdean, Brighton, Brighton (BN2 7BE). It has a recorded floor area of 199 m² (around 2142 sq ft) and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2014) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has an EV charger on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in December 2007. 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 £976,000 sits 95.2% above the 2007 sale of £499,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£233/sq ft) was about 20% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 2 Longhill Road is modelled from its 199 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN2 7BE. 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 2 Longhill 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 2 Longhill Road was lodged in May 2014 at band B and expired in May 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 2 Longhill 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 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN2 7BE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
2 Longhill Road is in council tax band E. 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.
