Overview

About 3 Western Road

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

3 Western Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Haywards Heath (RH16 3LR). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2020) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (November 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since April 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2002–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £530,000 sits 68.3% above the 2009 sale of £315,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£361/sq ft) was about 24.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2003.
