Overview

About 5 Chestnut Walk

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

5 Chestnut Walk is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Canvey Island (SS8 9JR). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2025) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in July 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86).

It hasn't traded since May 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. Across 1996–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £279,000 sits 80.6% above the 2007 sale of £154,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£167/sq ft) was about 18.8% below the postcode norm.
