Overview

About 6 Bank Cottages

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

6 Bank Cottages is an end-of-terrace house in Hollingbourne, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME17 1UP). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since December 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2011–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at -35.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £341,000 sits 4162.5% above the 2017 sale of £8,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£10/sq ft) was about 96.3% below the postcode norm. 7 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. At 75 m² it's 19% larger than the typical home in the postcode (63 m² median across 3 EPCs). On the market in November 2017 and unlisted since — roughly 9 years.

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 6 Bank Cottages is modelled from its 75 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME17 1UP. 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 6 Bank Cottages. 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 6 Bank Cottages was lodged in September 2013 at band E and expired in September 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 7 applications are matched to 6 Bank Cottages. 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 2 schools and 14 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME17 1UP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
6 Bank Cottages is in council tax band C. 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.
