Local market context
6 Ellenswood Close is a semi-detached house in Downswood, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME15 8SG). It has a recorded floor area of 27 m² (around 291 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2026) shows a C (score 72).

Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good, lighting went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.
