Overview

About 4 Minter Avenue

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

4 Minter Avenue is a semi-detached house in Densole, Folkestone, Folkestone (CT18 7DS). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2026) returns an A (score 92), the top energy band on the EPC scale. When first surveyed in February 2014 the rating was D, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Held since March 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £290,000 sits 590.5% above the 1996 sale of £42,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£44/sq ft) was about 81.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
