Overview

About 315 High Street

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

315 High Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Rochester (ME1 1BU). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. At 57 m² this is the 11th smallest of 19 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 29–68 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in March 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 315 High Street is modelled from its 57 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in ME1 1BU. 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 315 High Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 315 High Street was lodged in July 2015 at band C and expired in July 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 315 High Street. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 48 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME1 1BU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
315 High Street 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.
