Overview

About 19b

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

19b is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Eastbourne (BN21 1DD). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 929 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 86 m² this is the 7th smallest of 34 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 36–359 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 34 units on file.

Held since April 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £202,000 sits 411.4% above the 1996 sale of £39,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£43/sq ft) was about 67.4% below the postcode norm. At 86 m² it's 20.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (109 m² median across 33 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs).
