Bracken Lodge is a detached house in Challock, Ashford, Ashford (TN25 4DF). It has a recorded floor area of 188 m² (around 2024 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (March 2026) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since May 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £835,000 sits 247.9% above the 2000 sale of £240,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£119/sq ft) was about 54.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.

Because the property was built before 1919, has been extended more than once, and has no mains gas supply, we believe a Level 3 building survey should be considered.
