About 215b
215b is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Tunbridge Wells (TN2 5HT). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2022) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since May 2012.

Held since June 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm.

At 91 m² it sits well below the postcode median (145 m² across 28 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 14 planning records sit against the property, 13 approved, 1 refused. Today's modelled estimate of £481,000 is 45.3% above the 2007 sale price.
