Overview

About Claygate House

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

Claygate House is a detached house in Borough Green, Sevenoaks, Sevenoaks (TN15 8PX). It has a recorded floor area of 221 m² (around 2379 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (January 2011) shows a G (score 14), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 38). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 221 m² the property is well over the postcode median (126 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). 16 planning records sit against the property, 13 approved, 3 refused. Past consents include an annexe, an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Today's modelled estimate of £1,189,000 is 25.2% above the 2011 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£399/sq ft) was about 31.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in July 2011, so it's been off the market for around 15 years.
