Overview

About Boughton Aluph Cottage

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

Boughton Aluph Cottage is a four-bedroom detached house in Boughton Lees, Ashford, Ashford (TN25 4HS). It has a recorded floor area of 202 m² (around 2174 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. Other recorded features include notable views. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (March 2024) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). Main heating runs on oil.

It hasn't traded since September 2007, a hold of 19 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. At 202 m² the property is well over the postcode median (102 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 89% of similar EPCs). Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £928,000 sits 62.8% above the 2007 sale of £570,000.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Boughton Aluph Cottage is modelled from its 202 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in TN25 4HS. 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. 2 sales are recorded for Boughton Aluph Cottage. 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 Boughton Aluph Cottage was lodged in March 2024 at band D and is valid until March 2034. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Boughton Aluph Cottage. 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 5 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TN25 4HS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Boughton Aluph Cottage is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
