Overview

About 1 Hill View Cottage

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

1 Hill View Cottage is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in East Brabourne, Ashford, Ashford (TN25 5LR). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows an F (score 25), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (February 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 76 m² it sits well below the postcode median (179 m² across 4 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Across 2011–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 24.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £393,000 is 37.9% above the 2013 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£348/sq ft) was about 39.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in May 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.

Method

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 1 Hill View Cottage is modelled from its 76 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in TN25 5LR. 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 1 Hill View 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 1 Hill View Cottage was lodged in February 2013 at band F and expired in February 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records: Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 1 Hill View 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 2 schools and 5 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TN25 5LR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band: 1 Hill View Cottage is in council tax band D. 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.
