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.
