Overview

About 4 Akehurst Close

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

4 Akehurst Close is a five-bedroom detached house in Copthorne, Crawley, Crawley (RH10 3QQ). It has a recorded floor area of 195 m² (around 2099 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64). The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 195 m² the property is well over the postcode median (88 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Across 2006–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £643,000 is 34% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£229/sq ft) was about 16.5% below the postcode norm. Last sold in March 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2006.
