About 12b
12b is a detached house in Canvey Island (SS8 7SW). It has a recorded floor area of 33 m² (around 355 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since May 2001, a hold of 25 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 £224,000 sits 213.3% above the 2001 sale of £71,500. At 33 m² it sits well below the postcode median (62 m² across 28 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
