Laurel House is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Haywards Heath (RH16 1FE). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a balcony. At 70 m² this is the 16th smallest of 20 units on EPC record in Laurel House, where floor areas span 34–93 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 20 units on file. The latest certificate (September 2019) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (May 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good.

Untraded for 27 years, with the last transfer in May 1999. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time.
