Overview

About 18 Royston Road

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

18 Royston Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bearsted, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME15 8NS). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £399,000 is 47.8% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£285/sq ft) was about 24.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in February 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
