Overview

About 10 Kite Close

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

10 Kite Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in St Leonards On Sea (TN38 8DR). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (December 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since June 2002 — that's 24 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £272,000 sits 181.9% above the 2002 sale of £96,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£123/sq ft) was about 38% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023.
