About 9 Ethelburga Drive
9 Ethelburga Drive is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Lyminge, Folkestone, Folkestone (CT18 8JJ). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
At 91 m² the property is well over the postcode median (65 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Sold June 2022 for £425,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2007. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2004–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.2% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£434/sq ft) was about 79.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
