Overview

About 1 2 St Helens Cottages

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

1 2 St Helens Cottages is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in West Farleigh, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME15 0JZ). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1132 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in July 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 17.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £428,000 is 31.7% above the 2007 sale price.
