1 The Outlook is a two-bedroom detached house in Friston, Eastbourne, Eastbourne (BN20 0AR). It has a recorded floor area of 157 m² (around 1690 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F.

Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor.
