Overview

About 20 Downs Close

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

20 Downs Close is a detached house in Headcorn, Ashford, Ashford (TN27 9UG). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
