Overview

About 5 Ragstone Road

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

5 Ragstone Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bearsted, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME15 8PA). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 87). The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in June 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £351,000 sits 104.1% above the 2009 sale of £172,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
