Overview

About 3 Laurel Grove

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

3 Laurel Grove is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Kingswood, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME17 3PS). It has a recorded floor area of 139 m² (around 1496 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in May 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Today's modelled estimate of £469,000 sits 70.5% above the 2014 sale of £275,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£184/sq ft) was about 18.1% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 139 m² it's 26.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (110 m² median across 13 EPCs). Last sold in April 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 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 3 Laurel Grove is modelled from its 139 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in ME17 3PS. 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 3 Laurel Grove. 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 3 Laurel Grove was lodged in February 2026 at band C and is valid until February 2036. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 3 Laurel Grove. 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 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME17 3PS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 Laurel Grove 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.
