Get startedIvydean is a detached house in Southminster (CM0 7BP). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since January 2012. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
