About Flat 1

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

Flat 1 is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in St Leonards On Sea (TN38 0BY). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 697 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2010) shows a G (score 4), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (January 2009); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2002–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £176,000 sits 147.9% above the 2011 sale of £71,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£102/sq ft) was about 35.4% below the postcode norm.
