About Ford Farm
Ford Farm is a four-bedroom detached house in Albury, Guildford, Guildford (GU5 9DB). It has a recorded floor area of 274 m² (around 2949 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (May 2023) shows an F (score 33), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 66), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The property has an EV charger on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include outbuildings and a basement.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in September 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 274 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £1,826,000 sits 151.9% above the 2009 sale of £725,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£246/sq ft) was about 94.1% below the postcode norm. 15 planning records sit against the property, 12 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations.
