About 397 Long Riding
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
397 Long Riding is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Basildon (SS14 1JP). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2022) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include a conservatory and outbuildings. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
At 87 m² the property is well over the postcode median (46 m² across 32 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2026. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2007–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £355,000 is 10.9% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£342/sq ft) was about 84% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
