Overview

About 11 Birling Drive

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

11 Birling Drive is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Tunbridge Wells (TN2 5LG). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2010. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £468,000 is 26.5% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£378/sq ft) was about 17.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: April 2021 at £370,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
