About 40 Marina
40 Marina is an end-of-terrace house in St Leonards On Sea (TN38 0BU). It has a recorded floor area of 127 m² (around 1367 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 127 m² the property is well over the postcode median (69 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Across 2019–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at -34.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £179,000 sits 563% above the 2022 sale of £27,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£20/sq ft) was about 84.5% below the postcode norm. 8 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 3 refused. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Sold October 2022 for £27,000.
