About The Mead

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

The Mead is a four-bedroom detached house in Westerham (TN16 1TA). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (November 2020) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include notable views. Period features are noted in the property record.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in April 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £630,000 sits 93.8% above the 2009 sale of £325,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£280/sq ft) was about 28.3% below the postcode norm. At 108 m² it sits well below the postcode median (207 m² across 16 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
