Overview

About 8 Cranleigh Avenue

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

8 Cranleigh Avenue is a detached house in Rottingdean, Brighton, Brighton (BN2 7GT). It has a recorded floor area of 151 m² (around 1630 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since September 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 55). The latest certificate is from May 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since September 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £648,000 sits 159.2% above the 2001 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£153/sq ft) was about 48.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).
