Overview

About 7 Craven Avenue

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

7 Craven Avenue is a two-bedroom detached house in Canvey Island (SS8 0DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since April 2013. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). Across 2013–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.8% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£359/sq ft) was about 67.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: September 2021 at £375,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
