About 10 Kings Road

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

10 Kings Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Southwick, Brighton, Brighton (BN42 4RJ). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
