Overview

About Valley View

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

Valley View is a detached house in Hollingbourne, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME17 1RB). It has a recorded floor area of 223 m² (around 2400 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since July 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since February 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. At 223 m² the property is well over the postcode median (171 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £1,097,000 sits 271.9% above the 1997 sale of £295,000.

Method

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 Valley View is modelled from its 223 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in ME17 1RB. 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. 1 sale is recorded for Valley View. 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 Valley View was lodged in September 2014 at band D and expired in September 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to Valley View. 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 1 school and 15 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME17 1RB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Valley View is in council tax band G. 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.
