Overview

About 8 Eastern Avenue

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

8 Eastern Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ashford (TN23 1LR). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1259 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2025) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since January 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since September 2005, a hold of 21 years that's notably long for the area. At 117 m² the property is well over the postcode median (76 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £303,000 sits 120.4% above the 2005 sale of £137,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£109/sq ft) was about 41.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
