Overview

About 5 Summerdown Lane

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

5 Summerdown Lane is a two-bedroom detached house in East Dean, Eastbourne, Eastbourne (BN20 0LF). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Today's modelled estimate of £533,000 sits 64% above the 2014 sale of £325,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£364/sq ft) was about 17.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in March 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. At 83 m² it's 22.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (107 m² median across 10 EPCs).

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 5 Summerdown Lane is modelled from its 83 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN20 0LF. 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 5 Summerdown Lane. 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 5 Summerdown Lane was lodged in March 2014 at band D and expired in March 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. 1 application is matched to 5 Summerdown Lane. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from BN20 0LF. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Summerdown Lane 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.
