Overview

About 2 Albert Road

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

2 Albert Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Capel-Le-Ferne, Folkestone, Folkestone (CT18 7JY). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 943 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2011) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from October 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a corner plot.

It hasn't traded since December 2003, a hold of 22 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £333,000 sits 93.6% above the 2003 sale of £172,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£182/sq ft) was about 27.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
