Overview

About 317 Albion Street

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

317 Albion Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Southwick, Brighton, Brighton (BN42 4AT). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2026) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in November 2020 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include a balcony and notable views.

At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (79 m² across 28 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £471,000 is 44.9% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£256/sq ft) was about 29.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold January 2021 for £325,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 317 Albion Street is modelled from its 118 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN42 4AT. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 317 Albion Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 317 Albion Street was lodged in January 2026 at band C and is valid until January 2036. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 317 Albion Street. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 18 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN42 4AT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
317 Albion Street is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
