About Pear Tree Cottage
Pear Tree Cottage is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Newenden, Cranbrook, Cranbrook (TN18 5PY). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1390 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since December 2009 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1997–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £466,000 sits 86.4% above the 2009 sale of £250,000.
