Overview

About 18 Grampian Way

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

18 Grampian Way is a three-bedroom detached house in Downswood, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME15 8TG). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since December 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 18 Grampian Way is modelled from its 91 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME15 8TG. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 18 Grampian Way. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 18 Grampian Way was lodged in January 2016 at band D and expired in January 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 18 Grampian Way. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 21 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME15 8TG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
18 Grampian Way is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
