Overview

About Flat 3

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

Flat 3 is a mid-terrace house in Eastbourne (BN21 4NN). It has a recorded floor area of 38 m² (around 407 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 38 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 30–41 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (65 versus a best of 72). The latest certificate (December 2008) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from December 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since September 2006, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. Across 2001–2006, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £144,000 sits 60% above the 2006 sale of £90,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£221/sq ft) was about 16.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 38 m² it sits well below the postcode median (59 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

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 Flat 3 is modelled from its 38 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BN21 4NN. 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 Flat 3. 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 Flat 3 was lodged in December 2008 at band D and expired in December 2018, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Flat 3. 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 13 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN21 4NN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
