About 23 Blackmead
23 Blackmead is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Riverhead, Sevenoaks, Sevenoaks (TN13 2QU). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2020) shows a C (score 73). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84).
It hasn't traded since April 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. At 106 m² the property is well over the postcode median (74 m² across 43 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £590,000 sits 96.7% above the 2007 sale of £299,995. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
