Overview

About 17 Downsview Road

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

17 Downsview Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Eastbourne (BN20 9PT). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views.

Across 1997–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £272,000 sits 59.1% above the 2013 sale of £171,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£289/sq ft) was about 28.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 55 m² it sits well below the postcode median (86 m² across 12 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in April 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
