Overview

About 42 Cecil Avenue

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

42 Cecil Avenue is a mid-terrace house in Sheerness (ME12 1DX). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2025) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in October 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good.

It hasn't traded since May 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £231,000 sits 65% above the 2007 sale of £140,000.
