1 Downs Way Close, Tadworth, KT20 5DR
About 1 Downs Way Close
1 Downs Way Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Tadworth (KT20 5DR). It has a recorded floor area of 207 m² (around 2226 sq ft) and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2009) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. The rating has held steady at B across 2 certificates since August 2009. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in September 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 207 m² the property is well over the postcode median (137 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £985,000 sits 84.1% above the 2007 sale of £535,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£240/sq ft) was about 26.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2024. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
