Overview

About 5 Elms Avenue

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

5 Elms Avenue is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Eastbourne (BN21 3DN). It has a recorded floor area of 178 m² (around 1916 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
