Overview

About Willow Cottage

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

Willow Cottage is a detached house in Bilsington, Ashford, Ashford (TN25 7AT). It has a recorded floor area of 132 m² (around 1417 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2011) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in November 2011 and unlisted since — roughly 15 years. Today's modelled estimate of £842,000 is 45.2% above the 2011 sale price.

Method

How 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 Willow Cottage is modelled from its 132 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in TN25 7AT. 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 Willow 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 Willow Cottage was lodged in September 2011 at band E and expired in September 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. 1 application is matched to Willow 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 13 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TN25 7AT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Willow 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.
