Local market context
Swallowfield is a detached house in Mannings Heath, Horsham, Horsham (RH13 6HY). It has a recorded floor area of 1093 m² (around 11765 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band H. The latest certificate (August 2020) shows an F (score 29), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 63), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.
Today's modelled estimate of £3,678,000 is 17.6% below the 2021 sale of £4,465,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£380/sq ft) was about 132% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 1093 m² the property is well over the postcode median (159 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. Sold March 2021 for £4,465,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
Swallowfield's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
