Overview

About 3 Bishops Oast

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

3 Bishops Oast is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Hunton, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME15 0SH). It has a recorded floor area of 324 m² (around 3491 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (December 2008) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from December 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since January 1999 — that's 28 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 324 m² the property is well over the postcode median (138 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 83% of similar EPCs). 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £934,000 sits 196.5% above the 1999 sale of £315,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£90/sq ft) was about 75.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: new windows approved in 2019. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations.
