Overview

About Fernlea

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

Fernlea is a detached house in Challock, Ashford, Ashford (TN25 4DF). It has a recorded floor area of 218 m² (around 2347 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1950-1966. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in October 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £716,000 sits 89.9% above the 2013 sale of £377,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£161/sq ft) was about 38.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension and an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). 13 years since the last transfer (July 2013).

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Fernlea is modelled from its 218 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in TN25 4DF. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Fernlea. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Fernlea was lodged in September 2014 at band E and expired in September 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Fernlea. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 1 school and 3 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TN25 4DF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
