Overview

About 29a

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

29a is a mid-terrace house in Eastbourne (BN21 3XF). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 4 certificates since December 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 2-band jump.
