Overview

About 21 Ashleigh Drive

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

21 Ashleigh Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Leigh On Sea (SS9 1AD). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1206 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since June 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Across 1999–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £592,000 is 37.7% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£357/sq ft) was about 68% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 11 years ago, in April 2015. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2005.
