About 47 St Johns Road
47 St Johns Road is a semi-detached house in Polegate (BN26 5BT). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since March 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1995–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £259,000 sits 187.4% above the 2009 sale of £90,123.
