Overview

About 16 Dillingburgh Road

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

16 Dillingburgh Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Eastbourne (BN20 8LY). It has a recorded floor area of 115 m² (around 1238 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in February 2013 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Today's modelled estimate of £430,000 sits 68.6% above the 2013 sale of £255,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£206/sq ft) was about 29.5% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in June 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.

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 16 Dillingburgh Road is modelled from its 115 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN20 8LY. 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 16 Dillingburgh Road. 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 16 Dillingburgh Road was lodged in April 2015 at band E and expired in April 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 16 Dillingburgh Road. 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. The 14 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN20 8LY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
16 Dillingburgh Road 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.
