Overview

About 8a

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

8a is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Canvey Island (SS8 7QS). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The property has an EV charger on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77).

Most recent transfer: April 2023 at £285,000. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 2000–2023, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£457/sq ft) was about 66.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
