Local market context
114 Ashford Road is a semi-detached house in Bearsted, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME14 4LX). It has a recorded floor area of 143 m² (around 1539 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2018) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85).
Held since January 1996 — that's 31 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 143 m² the property is well over the postcode median (80 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £557,000 sits 642.7% above the 1996 sale of £75,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£49/sq ft) was about 71.9% 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.
