About 2 Blatchington Road
2 Blatchington Road is an eight-bedroom detached house in Tunbridge Wells (TN2 5EG). It has a recorded floor area of 289 m² (around 3111 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows an F (score 26), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since May 2009. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 39). The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
It hasn't traded since March 1999, a hold of 27 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 £1,221,000 sits 239.2% above the 1999 sale of £360,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£116/sq ft) was about 65% below the postcode norm. 5 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). 8 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count.
