Overview

About 1 Arundel Street

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

1 Arundel Street is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Maidstone (ME14 2RS). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in April 2011 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1997–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £252,000 is 42.4% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£222/sq ft) was about 35.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in March 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Arundel Street is modelled from its 74 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME14 2RS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 1 Arundel Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 Arundel Street was lodged in January 2014 at band D and expired in January 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 1 Arundel Street. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 25 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME14 2RS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Arundel Street is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
