About 153 Canterbury Road
153 Canterbury Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Hawkinge, Folkestone, Folkestone (CT18 7AX). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 823 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows a G (score 17), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to E (score 52), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
At 76 m² it sits well below the postcode median (134 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £329,000 sits 64.5% above the 2011 sale of £200,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£243/sq ft) was about 18.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in December 2011, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
