Overview

About Downsview

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

Downsview is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Willingdon, Eastbourne, Eastbourne (BN20 9PN). It has a recorded floor area of 43 m² (around 463 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. At 43 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across Downsview (43–73 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (April 2019) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (December 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good.

Held since July 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 43 m² it sits well below the postcode median (78 m² across 19 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2000–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £216,000 is 30.9% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£356/sq ft) was about 90.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
