About Elizabeth House
Elizabeth House is a four-bedroom detached house in Bethersden, Ashford, Ashford (TN26 3AE). It has a recorded floor area of 171 m² (around 1841 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (November 2025) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). Period features are noted in the property record.
It hasn't traded since June 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £773,000 sits 56.2% above the 2009 sale of £495,000. 4 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 171 m² it's 18.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (211 m² median across 4 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs).
