Overview

About The Icon

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

The Icon is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Basildon (SS14 1FG). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. At 55 m² this is the 15th smallest of 57 units on EPC record in The Icon, where floor areas span 38–79 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 57 units on file. The latest certificate (September 2018) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). Main heating runs on electricity.

Held since February 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
