About 8 Colson Drive
8 Colson Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Sittingbourne (ME9 8TT). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1025 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £365,000 sits 52.7% above the 2007 sale of £239,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£233/sq ft) was about 15.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
