Overview

About Knollys Cottage

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

Knollys Cottage is a detached house in Willesborough, Ashford, Ashford (TN24 0NJ). It has a recorded floor area of 197 m² (around 2120 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £722,000 is 47.3% above the 2009 sale price.
