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).
Fernlea's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
