Overview

About Clovelly

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

Clovelly is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Eastbourne (BN21 4JQ). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2021) shows a C (score 72). The rating has held steady at C across 5 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89). Other recorded features include a conservatory.

It hasn't traded since November 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1996–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £240,000 sits 76.5% above the 2008 sale of £136,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£238/sq ft) was about 43% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include new windows, an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 53 m² it's 16.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (64 m² median across 22 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 77% of similar EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Clovelly is modelled from its 53 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BN21 4JQ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for Clovelly. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Clovelly was lodged in December 2021 at band C and is valid until December 2031. 5 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to Clovelly. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 14 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN21 4JQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Clovelly is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
