Overview

About 1 St Andrews Road

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

1 St Andrews Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Portslade, Brighton, Brighton (BN41 1DB). It has a recorded floor area of 180 m² (around 1938 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in May 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 180 m² the property is well over the postcode median (80 m² across 38 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). Across 2006–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £666,000 sits 75.3% above the 2015 sale of £380,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£196/sq ft) was about 23.3% below the postcode norm. On the market in March 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2009.
