About 16 Bay View Heights
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16 Bay View Heights is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Birchington (CT7 9QY). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. At 70 m² this is the 7th smallest of 17 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 49–86 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 17 units on file. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since February 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £230,000 sits 303.5% above the 1997 sale of £57,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£76/sq ft) was about 65.4% below the postcode norm.
