About 42a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
42a is a five-bedroom detached house in Hadleigh, Benfleet, Benfleet (SS7 2DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 123 m² (around 1324 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2024) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area.

At 123 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £469,000 sits 89.5% above the 2007 sale of £247,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£187/sq ft) was about 18.3% below the postcode norm.
