Overview

About 7 Downlands

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

7 Downlands is a detached house in Harrietsham, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME17 1LE). It has a recorded floor area of 150 m² (around 1615 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £629,000 sits 231.1% above the 1997 sale of £190,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£118/sq ft) was about 34.9% below the postcode norm.
