About 5 Cliff Road
5 Cliff Road is a one-bedroom detached house in Leigh On Sea (SS9 1HJ). It has a recorded floor area of 125 m² (around 1344 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2010) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from October 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since November 1995, a hold of 31 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 £534,000 sits 1710.2% above the 1995 sale of £29,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£22/sq ft) was about 92.1% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
