Overview

About 16 Heskett Park

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

16 Heskett Park is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Pembury, Tunbridge Wells, Tunbridge Wells (TN2 4JF). It has a recorded floor area of 124 m² (around 1335 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2023) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The property has an EV charger on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since August 2009 — that's 17 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. At 124 m² it's 26.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (98 m² median across 20 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Across 2001–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £586,000 sits 145.2% above the 2009 sale of £239,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£179/sq ft) was about 37.3% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, a conservatory and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
