About Flat 1
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 1 is a two-bedroom detached house in Hockley (SS5 4LX). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band C. At 46 m² this is the 4th smallest of 11 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 35–78 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom.

Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in December 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £213,000 is 21.7% above the 2008 sale price.
