About 18 Black Lawn
18 Black Lawn is a detached house in Gillingham (SP8 4SD). It has a recorded floor area of 128 m² (around 1378 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since September 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £334,000 sits 342.4% above the 1997 sale of £75,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£55/sq ft) was about 71.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, a porch and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 128 m² it's 19.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (107 m² median across 13 EPCs).
