Overview

About 21 Links Road

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

21 Links Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Portslade, Brighton, Brighton (BN41 1XH). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 109 m² it's 22.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (89 m² median across 19 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £497,000 is 21.5% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£349/sq ft) was about 16.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold September 2021 for £409,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
