About 13 Vale Road

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

13 Vale Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Loose, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME15 0EP). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£246/sq ft) was about 47.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010.

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 13 Vale Road is modelled from its 85 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME15 0EP. 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 13 Vale 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 13 Vale Road was lodged in June 2009 at band D and expired in June 2019, 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 13 Vale 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME15 0EP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
13 Vale Road is in council tax band D. 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.
