About 21 Orchard Field

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

21 Orchard Field is a semi-detached house in Bethersden, Ashford, Ashford (TN26 3AW). It has a recorded floor area of 44 m² (around 474 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in February 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 94), a 2-band jump.
