Overview

About 8 Hurst Crescent

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

8 Hurst Crescent is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Portslade, Brighton, Brighton (BN41 1SG). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2000–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 20.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £380,000 sits 67.6% above the 2007 sale of £226,695.
