Overview

About The Frimbles

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

The Frimbles is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Ansty, Haywards Heath, Haywards Heath (RH17 5AF). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 581 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2025) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in May 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since April 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 54 m² it sits well below the postcode median (94 m² across 5 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £350,000 is 45.7% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£413/sq ft) was about 32.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
