Overview

About 4 The Bank

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

4 The Bank is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ightham, Sevenoaks, Sevenoaks (TN15 9HE). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in August 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 98), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 42 m² it sits well below the postcode median (111 m² across 4 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Across 2010–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £227,000 is 11.8% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£449/sq ft) was about 36.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.
