Overview

About 126 Bluehouse Lane

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

126 Bluehouse Lane is a six-bedroom detached house in Oxted (RH8 0AR). It has a recorded floor area of 278 m² (around 2992 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since May 2015. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views and attached land beyond the plot. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

At 278 m² the property is well over the postcode median (96 m² across 32 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs). 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, partial demolition and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1996–2019, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.3% per year.
