Overview

About 17 Foster Clarke Drive

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

17 Foster Clarke Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Boughton Monchelsea, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME17 4SZ). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2022) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since June 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88).

It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1999–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £326,000 sits 78.1% above the 2009 sale of £183,000. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2005.

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 17 Foster Clarke Drive is modelled from its 67 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME17 4SZ. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 17 Foster Clarke Drive. 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 17 Foster Clarke Drive was lodged in December 2022 at band C and is valid until December 2032. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 17 Foster Clarke Drive. 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 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME17 4SZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
17 Foster Clarke Drive 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.
