About 12 The Driveway

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

12 The Driveway is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Canvey Island (SS8 0AD). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2023) 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.

Held since October 2003 — that's 23 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 108 m² the property is well over the postcode median (77 m² across 27 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1997–2003, sale prices on this property compounded at 19.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £393,000 sits 104.2% above the 2003 sale of £192,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£166/sq ft) was about 28.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2001. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
