About The Haven
The Haven is a detached house in Bosham, Chichester, Chichester (PO18 8HZ). It has a recorded floor area of 250 m² (around 2691 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Across 2015–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at -0.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,967,000 is 22.9% below the 2022 sale of £2,550,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£948/sq ft) was about 163.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 250 m² the property is well over the postcode median (123 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 7 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Sold August 2022 for £2,550,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
