Overview

About 14a

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

14a is a detached house in Canvey Island (SS8 7BT). It has a recorded floor area of 126 m² (around 1356 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (March 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 126 m² the property is well over the postcode median (95 m² across 48 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1996–1996, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £355,000 sits 745.2% above the 1996 sale of £42,000.
