Overview

About 25 Longdon Wood

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

25 Longdon Wood is a five-bedroom detached house in Keston (BR2 6EN). It has a recorded floor area of 492 m² (around 5299 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band H. The latest certificate (September 2009) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 2009 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 492 m² the property is well over the postcode median (221 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). 8 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 4 refused. Past consents include tree works and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. Across 2004–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 24.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £2,401,000 is 40.7% above the 2009 sale price.
