About 1 Orchard Road
1 Orchard Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Southminster (CM0 7DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1304 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows a C (score 72). The latest certificate is from September 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
At 121 m² the property is well over the postcode median (88 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1997–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £361,000 sits 57% above the 2015 sale of £230,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in June 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
