Overview

About 8 Acorn Avenue

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

8 Acorn Avenue is a three-bedroom detached house in Cowfold, Horsham, Horsham (RH13 8RS). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2012) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a corner plot.

Today's modelled estimate of £379,000 sits 72.3% above the 2012 sale of £220,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs). On the market in September 2012 and unlisted since — roughly 14 years.
