About 151 Cumberland Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
151 Cumberland Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Benfleet (SS7 1DX). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 619 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 59). The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £305,000 sits 93% above the 2009 sale of £158,000. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2019. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 58 m² it's 24.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (76 m² median across 14 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs).
