About 2 Middle Platt
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Middle Platt is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Hamstreet, Ashford, Ashford (TN26 2JL). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1582 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in July 2011 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 67). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Across 1995–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £453,000 sits 61.8% above the 2014 sale of £280,000. Last changed hands 12 years ago, in November 2014.
