Overview

About Norton Cottage

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

Norton Cottage is a detached house in Rottingdean, Brighton, Brighton (BN2 7HA). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2012) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since August 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 86 m² it's 20.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (108 m² median across 23 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £585,000 sits 446.7% above the 1997 sale of £107,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£116/sq ft) was about 69.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: new windows refused in 2013.
