Overview

About 1 Carlen Cottages

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

1 Carlen Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ashford (TN23 7TN). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1157 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 41). The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in August 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1999–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £244,000 sits 71.2% above the 2009 sale of £142,500.
