About Abbey Gate Farm
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Abbey Gate Farm is a detached house in Maidstone (ME15 0PP). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1030 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows an F (score 27), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 52). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 96 m² it sits well below the postcode median (183 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
