About 11a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
11a is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Lenham, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME17 2QD). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 717 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include outbuildings and a basement. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (June 2011) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 56). The latest certificate is from June 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
5 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 67 m² it sits well below the postcode median (100 m² across 24 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Sold June 2024 for £363,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 2006–2024, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.2% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£506/sq ft) was about 140% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 11a is modelled from its 67 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME17 2QD. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 11a. 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 11a was lodged in June 2011 at band E and expired in June 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 5 applications are matched to 11a. 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 3 schools and 15 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME17 2QD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 11a is in council tax band D. 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.
