About 15 Claygate
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
15 Claygate is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Ashford (TN23 5YG). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in February 2010 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory and attached land beyond the plot. The home occupies a corner plot and a cul-de-sac position.
It hasn't traded since August 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. At 108 m² the property is well over the postcode median (67 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 15 Claygate is modelled from its 108 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in TN23 5YG. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 4 sales are recorded for 15 Claygate. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 15 Claygate was lodged in January 2014 at band C and expired in January 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 15 Claygate. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TN23 5YG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 15 Claygate is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
