Overview

About 15 Albert Road

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

15 Albert Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Southwick, Brighton, Brighton (BN42 4GE). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since October 2011. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since April 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £461,000 sits 92.1% above the 2007 sale of £240,000.
