About 8 Bay Close
8 Bay Close is a two-bedroom detached house in Canvey Island (SS8 0AF). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 701 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since May 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 £302,000 sits 80.8% above the 2009 sale of £167,000. At 65 m² it sits well below the postcode median (100 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
