29 The Crescent, Frinton On Sea, CO13 9AR
About 29 The Crescent
29 The Crescent is a four-bedroom detached house in Frinton On Sea (CO13 9AR). It has a recorded floor area of 278 m² (around 2992 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2012) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in January 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from August 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in December 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 278 m² the property is well over the postcode median (96 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £865,000 sits 111% above the 2009 sale of £410,000. 13 planning records sit against the property, 11 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
