Flat 2 is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Eastbourne (BN21 1DU). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 620 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. At 58 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (58–104 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (62 versus a worst of 48). Other recorded features include a conservatory. The latest certificate (September 2009) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from September 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 58 m² it sits well below the postcode median (120 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2006–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at -2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £214,000 is 35.4% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£255/sq ft) was about 60.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
