Overview

About 16 Garnet Drive

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

16 Garnet Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Eastbourne (BN20 9AE). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2020) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). Other recorded features include a conservatory. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £570,000 sits 93.2% above the 2007 sale of £295,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£228/sq ft) was about 19.3% below the postcode norm. At 120 m² it's 25.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (161 m² median across 11 EPCs).
