About 17 Ascot Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
17 Ascot Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Benfleet (SS7 3SF). It has a recorded floor area of 45 m² (around 484 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 93), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
It hasn't traded since March 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £345,000 sits 509% above the 1996 sale of £56,650. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£117/sq ft) was about 70.7% below the postcode norm. At 45 m² it's 18.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (55 m² median across 16 EPCs).
