Local market context
Brookside is a detached house in Copthorne, Crawley, Crawley (RH10 3JD). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1453 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since March 2025. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since May 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £663,000 sits 373.6% above the 1997 sale of £140,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£96/sq ft) was about 68.6% below the postcode norm. 5 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 135 m² it's 18.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (114 m² median across 10 EPCs).
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
