About Wexford Cottage
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Wexford Cottage is a four-bedroom detached house in Brook, Ashford, Ashford (TN25 5PG). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1052 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 26 years, with the last transfer in September 2000. 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 £676,000 sits 155.1% above the 2000 sale of £265,000. 7 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 98 m² it sits well below the postcode median (183 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

Start your researchHow 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 Wexford Cottage is modelled from its 98 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in TN25 5PG. 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 Wexford 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 Wexford Cottage was lodged in August 2011 at band D and expired in August 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 7 applications are matched to Wexford 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 3 schools and 9 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TN25 5PG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Wexford Cottage is in council tax band E. 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.
