Overview

About 3 Falmer Close

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

3 Falmer Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Eastbourne (BN20 9AB). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 806 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

It hasn't traded since November 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. Across 1998–2010, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £323,000 sits 53.8% above the 2010 sale of £210,000. At 75 m² it sits well below the postcode median (109 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 3 Falmer Close is modelled from its 75 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BN20 9AB. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 3 Falmer Close. 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 3 Falmer Close was lodged in July 2010 at band D and expired in July 2020, 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 3 Falmer Close. 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 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN20 9AB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 Falmer Close is in council tax band C. 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.
