About 16 Elmhurst Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16 Elmhurst Avenue is a four-bedroom detached house in Benfleet (SS7 5RY). It has a recorded floor area of 141 m² (around 1518 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 27 years, with the last transfer in September 1999. 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 £540,000 sits 260% above the 1999 sale of £150,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£99/sq ft) was about 53.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: a garage conversion approved in 2015. Past consents include a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs).
