Overview

About 3 Dittons Road

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

3 Dittons Road is a semi-detached house in Eastbourne (BN21 1DN). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1389 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in November 2010 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 129 m² this is the 5th smallest of 8 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 75–300 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom.

2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, a conservatory and subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last changed hands 9 years ago, in December 2016. Today's modelled estimate of £404,000 is 10.7% above the 2016 sale price.
