About Faincroft House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Faincroft House is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Cobham, Gravesend, Gravesend (DA12 3AX). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 431 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2020) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor. At 40 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in Faincroft House, where floor areas span 34–71 m². On EPC score it ranks last in the building (69 versus a best of 79).
It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £271,000 sits 50.6% above the 2007 sale of £179,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£418/sq ft) was about 62.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
