Overview

About 16 Downsvalley Road

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

16 Downsvalley Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Eastbourne (BN20 9QG). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 734 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2009) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from September 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £389,000 sits 58.1% above the 2009 sale of £246,000.
