About 19 Birling Avenue

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

19 Birling Avenue is a detached house in Bearsted, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME14 4AJ). It has a recorded floor area of 139 m² (around 1496 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump.
