Overview

About 17 Castle Walk

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

17 Castle Walk is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Canvey Island (SS8 9XA). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2021) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in November 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89).

It hasn't traded since March 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 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £258,000 sits 88.3% above the 2007 sale of £137,000. At 60 m² it's 25.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (81 m² median across 7 EPCs).
