Overview

About 8 Orchard Court

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

8 Orchard Court is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Ashford (TN23 7US). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (December 2023) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band.

It hasn't traded since September 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £192,000 is 19.3% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£253/sq ft) was about 17.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 59 m² it's 24.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (78 m² median across 9 EPCs).
