Get started4 Craven Avenue is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Canvey Island (SS8 0DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1950-1966. The latest certificate (January 2023) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (February 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since July 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (86 m² across 21 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £327,000 sits 124% above the 2007 sale of £146,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£115/sq ft) was about 47% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2011. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
4 Craven Avenue's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
