Overview

About 1 St James Road

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

1 St James Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Vange, Basildon, Basildon (SS16 4XS). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since September 2011. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Untraded for 22 years, with the last transfer in January 2005. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £396,000 sits 84.2% above the 2005 sale of £215,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£232/sq ft) was about 15.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
