Overview

About 4 Bampfield Street

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

4 Bampfield Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Portslade, Brighton, Brighton (BN41 1SE). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (September 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a loft.

It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2004–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £370,000 sits 68.2% above the 2009 sale of £219,950. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).
