About 12e

12e is a semi-detached house in Westcliff On Sea (SS0 8BU). It has a recorded floor area of 32 m² (around 344 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 32 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (32–228 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (November 2025) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it C (August 2014); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average.
