About 47 Leigh Cliff Road
47 Leigh Cliff Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Leigh On Sea (SS9 1DN). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1432 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows a G (score 17), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to E (score 46), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 4 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 2 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £646,000 sits 82% above the 2009 sale of £355,000. 7 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 4 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
