Overview

About 143 Royston Avenue

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

143 Royston Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Southend On Sea (SS2 4BS). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2012) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Sold March 2022 for £440,000. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008. Past consents include an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2000–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.9% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£346/sq ft) was about 83.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
