Overview

About 1 Church Road

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

1 Church Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in West Kingsdown, Sevenoaks, Sevenoaks (TN15 6LL). It has a recorded floor area of 31 m² (around 334 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2012-2021 and council tax band D. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility. At 31 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (31–104 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 30 units on file. The latest certificate (November 2025) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2018. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good.

It hasn't traded since October 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £562,000 sits 277.8% above the 2000 sale of £148,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£446/sq ft) was about 130.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 31 m² it sits well below the postcode median (80 m² across 29 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: a garage conversion approved in 2025. Past consents include a garage conversion and an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
