About Old Post House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Old Post House is a five-bedroom detached house in Copsale, Horsham, Horsham (RH13 6QS). It has a recorded floor area of 196 m² (around 2108 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.
It hasn't traded since December 1998, a hold of 28 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. At 196 m² the property is well over the postcode median (130 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £1,124,000 sits 212.2% above the 1998 sale of £360,000.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Old Post House is modelled from its 196 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in RH13 6QS. 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. 1 sale is recorded for Old Post House. 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 Old Post House was lodged in May 2010 at band E and expired in May 2020, 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. None is matched to Old Post House. 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 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RH13 6QS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Old Post House is in council tax band G. 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.
