About Lambs Lea

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

Lambs Lea is a three-bedroom detached house in Pluckley, Ashford, Ashford (TN27 0RB). It has a recorded floor area of 242 m² (around 2605 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (December 2017) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in October 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Good to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while main heating dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). Main heating runs on electricity. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

At 242 m² the property is well over the postcode median (162 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £842,000 sits 65.1% above the 2014 sale of £510,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£196/sq ft) was about 20.4% below the postcode norm. 4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, a loft conversion and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in April 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
