Overview

About Yew Tree Cottage

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

Yew Tree Cottage is a four-bedroom detached house in Stanford, Ashford, Ashford (TN25 6DN). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows a G (score 10), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 67), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

It hasn't traded since July 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.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £566,000 sits 54.9% above the 2007 sale of £365,500.

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 Yew Tree Cottage is modelled from its 118 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in TN25 6DN. 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. 3 sales are recorded for Yew Tree 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 Yew Tree Cottage was lodged in April 2012 at band G and expired in April 2022, 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. 1 application is matched to Yew Tree 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 1 school and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TN25 6DN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
