About This Property
This terraced house is located in BRIGHTON, BN1 3LW. The property offers 158m² (1701 sq ft) of spacious living space with 7 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. The property holds an EPC rating of C (74/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (81/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The pitched roof lacks adequate insulation. Topping up loft insulation to 270mm (the recommended depth) typically costs £300-£500 and could save £150-£250 annually, with the investment often paying for itself within 2-3 years. Double glazing is installed, though the efficiency rating suggests older units. Modern low-E double glazing can be up to 40% more efficient than units installed before 2002. Estimated annual energy costs are £1403, comprising £1115 for heating, £141 for hot water, and £147 for lighting. The property produces 4.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home. The property last sold in March 2025 for £1,250,000, with 2 recorded sales in our database.
