Overview

About 8 Kenilworth Gardens

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

8 Kenilworth Gardens is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Westcliff On Sea (SS0 0BD). It has a recorded floor area of 152 m² (around 1636 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 152 m² the property is well over the postcode median (115 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2015–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £608,000 is 12.6% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£330/sq ft) was about 34.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold January 2021 for £540,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2016.
