Overview

About 15 Leyton Lea

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

15 Leyton Lea is a four-bedroom detached house in Cuckfield, Haywards Heath, Haywards Heath (RH17 5AT). It has a recorded floor area of 149 m² (around 1604 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 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. Today's modelled estimate of £871,000 sits 74.2% above the 2009 sale of £500,000.
