About Tulip Tree House

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

Tulip Tree House is a detached house in Challock, Ashford, Ashford (TN25 4DE). It has a recorded floor area of 142 m² (around 1531 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (October 2009) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 46). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from October 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 142 m² it's 18.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (175 m² median across 10 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Across 2000–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £670,000 is 35.1% above the 2012 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£324/sq ft) was about 21.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in April 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
