Overview

About 4 Birch Road

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

4 Birch Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Tillingham, Southminster, Southminster (CM0 7SX). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). Main heating runs on oil. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
