About 40 Byfletts
40 Byfletts is a two-bedroom detached house in Basildon (SS16 4LG). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2017) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71).
It hasn't traded since July 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 116 m² the property is well over the postcode median (80 m² across 28 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £342,000 sits 95.4% above the 2008 sale of £175,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 2 refused.
