About 4 Leigh Road
4 Leigh Road is a semi-detached house in Canvey Island (SS8 0AP). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 4-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 1998, a hold of 28 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 £330,000 sits 364.8% above the 1998 sale of £71,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£83/sq ft) was about 51% below the postcode norm. At 79 m² it sits well below the postcode median (113 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs).
