Overview

About 23 Hillway

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

23 Hillway is a four-bedroom detached house in Westcliff On Sea (SS0 8QA). It has a recorded floor area of 189 m² (around 2034 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2011. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 189 m² it's 21.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (156 m² median across 25 EPCs). Across 2010–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.2% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£423/sq ft) was about 31% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in July 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
