About Burnt Farmhouse
Burnt Farmhouse is a detached house in Sandhurst, Cranbrook, Cranbrook (TN18 5JG). It has a recorded floor area of 225 m² (around 2422 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (August 2012) shows an F (score 33), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 67), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from August 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 225 m² the property is well over the postcode median (134 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 29 planning records sit against the property, 23 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Today's modelled estimate of £1,100,000 is 22.2% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£372/sq ft) was about 17.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in February 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.
