About Brook Cottage
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Brook Cottage is a detached house in Warehorne, Ashford, Ashford (TN26 2LU). It has a recorded floor area of 181 m² (around 1948 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1967-1975. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in April 2016 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in August 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £728,000 sits 82% above the 2007 sale of £400,000. 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch and an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 Brook Cottage is modelled from its 181 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in TN26 2LU. 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 Brook 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 Brook Cottage was lodged in May 2016 at band C and expired in May 2026, 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. 4 applications are matched to Brook 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
