Overview

About 25 Ashford Road

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

25 Ashford Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Bearsted, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME14 4BP). It has a recorded floor area of 197 m² (around 2120 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2012) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since June 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 197 m² the property is well over the postcode median (129 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1997–2006, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £682,000 sits 97.7% above the 2006 sale of £345,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£163/sq ft) was about 24% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 25 Ashford Road is modelled from its 197 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME14 4BP. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 25 Ashford Road. 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 25 Ashford Road was lodged in September 2012 at band D and expired in September 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 25 Ashford Road. 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 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME14 4BP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
25 Ashford Road is in council tax band G. 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.
