Overview

About 18 Long Shaw Close

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

18 Long Shaw Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Boughton Monchelsea, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME17 4GE). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 792 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2011) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from July 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement.

Held since December 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £332,000 is 41.3% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£297/sq ft) was about 20.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 74 m² it's 25.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (99 m² median across 10 EPCs).

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 18 Long Shaw Close is modelled from its 74 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in ME17 4GE. 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 18 Long Shaw Close. 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 18 Long Shaw Close was lodged in July 2011 at band C and expired in July 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. None is matched to 18 Long Shaw Close. 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 14 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME17 4GE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
18 Long Shaw Close 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.
