Overview

About 1 Eugene Cottages

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

1 Eugene Cottages is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in High Halden, Ashford, Ashford (TN26 3BS). It has a recorded floor area of 131 m² (around 1410 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2022 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2025) returns an A (score 95), the top energy band on the EPC scale. When first surveyed in August 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Very Good. Main heating runs on electricity: electricity, unspecified tariff. The property has solar panels and underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £482,000 sits 157.8% above the 2009 sale of £187,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£133/sq ft) was about 34% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
