37a, Kingsley Road, Maidstone, ME15 7UN
About 37a
37a is a mid-terrace house in Maidstone (ME15 7UN). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 50 m² this is the 16th smallest of 45 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 19–163 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 45 units on file. The latest certificate (January 2024) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since April 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £175,000 sits 297.7% above the 1996 sale of £44,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£82/sq ft) was about 49.5% below the postcode norm. At 50 m² it sits well below the postcode median (76 m² across 44 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2016.
