Overview

About 4 Old Timber Top Cottages

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

4 Old Timber Top Cottages is a mid-terrace house in Sevenoaks (TN13 3UE). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 441 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

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 £340,000 sits 200.9% above the 2000 sale of £113,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£256/sq ft) was about 24.9% below the postcode norm.
