About 18 Royston Road
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.
Today's modelled estimate of £411,000 sits 52.2% above the 2014 sale of £270,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£285/sq ft) was about 36.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in February 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
