39 Orchard Field, Bethersden, Ashford, TN26 3AW

39 Orchard Field is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bethersden, Ashford, Ashford (TN26 3AW). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since March 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 6 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 94 m² the property is well over the postcode median (54 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1996–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £347,000 sits 61.4% above the 2007 sale of £214,995.
