Overview

About Austen House

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

Austen House is a detached house in Challock, Ashford, Ashford (TN25 4BL). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 971 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since September 2008, a hold of 18 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 £470,000 sits 88% above the 2008 sale of £249,995. 5 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 90 m² it's 29.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (128 m² median across 13 EPCs).
