5 Bargates, Ashford, TN23 5UD
About 5 Bargates
5 Bargates is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ashford (TN23 5UD). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 841 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £278,000 sits 85.3% above the 2009 sale of £150,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£178/sq ft) was about 17.6% below the postcode norm.
