About 8 Hadrian Avenue
8 Hadrian Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Southwick, Brighton, Brighton (BN42 4LJ). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 668 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 60). The latest certificate is from September 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Held since May 2011 — that's 15 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £437,000 sits 90% above the 2011 sale of £230,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£344/sq ft) was about 68.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 62 m² it sits well below the postcode median (105 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
