Overview

About 3 Elmtree

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

3 Elmtree is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Appledore, Ashford, Ashford (TN26 2DL). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in May 2015 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on dual fuel. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2005–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £420,000 is 10.6% below the 2022 sale of £470,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£716/sq ft) was about 199% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 61 m² it sits well below the postcode median (89 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Sold September 2022 for £470,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 3 Elmtree is modelled from its 61 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in TN26 2DL. 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 3 Elmtree. 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 3 Elmtree was lodged in August 2015 at band D and expired in August 2025, 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. 2 applications are matched to 3 Elmtree. 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 2DL. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 Elmtree is in council tax band C. 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.
