Overview

About 14 Lenham Road West

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

14 Lenham Road West is a four-bedroom detached house in Rottingdean, Brighton, Brighton (BN2 7GJ). It has a recorded floor area of 162 m² (around 1744 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 68), a 2-band jump.

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 14 Lenham Road West is modelled from its 162 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN2 7GJ. 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 14 Lenham Road West. 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 14 Lenham Road West was lodged in July 2014 at band F and expired in July 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. None is matched to 14 Lenham Road West. 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 5 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN2 7GJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
14 Lenham Road West 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.
