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 £457,000 sits 144.4% 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.

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Eugene Cottages is modelled from its 131 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in TN26 3BS. 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 1 Eugene Cottages. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC

Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 1 Eugene Cottages. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 3 schools and 13 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TN26 3BS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Eugene Cottages is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
