Overview

About 3 Bell Field

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

3 Bell Field is a five-bedroom detached house in Mersham, Ashford, Ashford (TN25 6NU). It has a recorded floor area of 235 m² (around 2530 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2025) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since September 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 55). Main heating runs on electricity. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe.

Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension and an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £870,000 is 42.6% above the 2009 sale price.
