About 16 Cambridge Street
16 Cambridge Street is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Tunbridge Wells (TN2 4SJ). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2021) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since February 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £704,000 sits 369.5% above the 1998 sale of £149,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£114/sq ft) was about 64.6% below the postcode norm. 7 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, tree works and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
