About Flat 3

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

Flat 3 is a two-bedroom detached house in Eastbourne (BN20 7NR). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 101 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (101–206 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to D, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (61 versus a worst of 26). The latest certificate (October 2020) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since October 2010. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in April 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
