Overview

About 1 Southfields Road

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

1 Southfields Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Eastbourne (BN21 1BU). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a C (score 70). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since June 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. At 110 m² the property is well over the postcode median (68 m² across 36 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £423,000 is 48.4% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£241/sq ft) was about 50.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
