Overview

About 20 Holyrood Drive

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

20 Holyrood Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Westcliff On Sea (SS0 9XY). It has a recorded floor area of 191 m² (around 2056 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
