Overview

About 18 Brookside Avenue

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

18 Brookside Avenue is a semi-detached house in Polegate (BN26 6DL). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since July 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 1998–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 11% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £308,000 sits 57.9% above the 2009 sale of £195,000.
