Overview

About Pear Tree House

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

Pear Tree House is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Hothfield, Ashford, Ashford (TN26 1AN). It has a recorded floor area of 139 m² (around 1496 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since April 2013. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views and a self-contained annexe. Period features are noted in the property record.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Last sold in August 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. Across 1996–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £596,000 is 45.4% above the 2014 sale price.

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 Pear Tree House is modelled from its 139 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in TN26 1AN. 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 Pear Tree House. 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 Pear Tree House was lodged in July 2013 at band E and expired in July 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Pear Tree House. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from TN26 1AN. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Pear Tree House 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.
