Overview

About 12 Eastbank

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

12 Eastbank is a five-bedroom detached house in Southwick, Brighton, Brighton (BN42 4QL). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1216 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 113 m² it's 17.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (96 m² median across 12 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Across 2003–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £591,000 is 27.1% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£382/sq ft) was about 57.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in August 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.

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 12 Eastbank is modelled from its 113 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BN42 4QL. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 12 Eastbank. 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 12 Eastbank was lodged in February 2016 at band E and expired in February 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 12 Eastbank. 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 21 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN42 4QL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
12 Eastbank is in council tax band D. 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.
