Overview

About Flat 1

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

Flat 1 is a two-bedroom detached house in Eastbourne (BN21 1DT). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1318 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. At 122 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across the building (73–122 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to D, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (33 versus a best of 62). The latest certificate (June 2010) shows an F (score 33), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 40). The latest certificate is from June 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Last sold in July 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. Across the public record there are 6 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2000–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £340,000 is 19.3% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£216/sq ft) was about 17.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
