Overview

About The Old Rectory

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

The Old Rectory is a seven-bedroom detached house in Rusper, Horsham, Horsham (RH12 4PX). It has a recorded floor area of 554 m² (around 5963 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band H. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since July 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 554 m² the property is well over the postcode median (102 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). 7 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. 10 planning records sit against the property, 9 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include tree works, an extension and an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2004–2010, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £2,654,000 is 12.9% above the 2010 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£394/sq ft) was about 16.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 The Old Rectory is modelled from its 554 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in RH12 4PX. 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. 2 sales are recorded for The Old Rectory. 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 The Old Rectory was lodged in May 2009 at band F and expired in May 2019, 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. 10 applications are matched to The Old Rectory. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 1 school and 13 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RH12 4PX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
The Old Rectory is in council tax band H. 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.
