1 Pond Cottages is a semi-detached house in Hollingbourne, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME17 1QB). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 800 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
