Overview

About 43 Coombe Vale

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

43 Coombe Vale is a two-bedroom detached house in Saltdean, Brighton, Brighton (BN2 8HN). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 763 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 42). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £380,000 sits 68.9% above the 2009 sale of £225,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£295/sq ft) was about 20.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

How 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 43 Coombe Vale is modelled from its 71 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN2 8HN. 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 43 Coombe Vale. 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 43 Coombe Vale was lodged in August 2009 at band F and expired in August 2019, 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 43 Coombe Vale. 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 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN2 8HN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
43 Coombe Vale 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.
