About Ferncroft
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Ferncroft is a five-bedroom detached house in Maplehurst, Horsham, Horsham (RH13 6RE). It has a recorded floor area of 190 m² (around 2045 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
At 190 m² the property is well over the postcode median (127 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 9 planning records sit against the property, 8 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2003–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,321,000 is 20.1% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£538/sq ft) was about 73% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in May 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Ferncroft is modelled from its 190 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in RH13 6RE. 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. 3 sales are recorded for Ferncroft. 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 Ferncroft was lodged in June 2014 at band D and expired in June 2024, 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. 9 applications are matched to Ferncroft. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 21 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RH13 6RE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Ferncroft is in council tax band G. 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.
