Overview

About 5 Walnut Walk

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

5 Walnut Walk is an end-of-terrace house in Polegate (BN26 5AD). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 70). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since April 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor.

Held since February 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £303,000 sits 657.5% above the 1996 sale of £40,000.
