Overview

About 141a

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

141a is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Rochester (ME1 1EL). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 535 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (June 2010) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. When first surveyed in January 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 48). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 50 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in 141a, where floor areas span 37–50 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (35 versus a best of 72).

It hasn't traded since January 2002, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £300,000 is 39.5% above the 2002 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£402/sq ft) was about 281.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 141a is modelled from its 50 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in ME1 1EL. 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 141a. 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 141a was lodged in June 2010 at band F and expired in June 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 141a. 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 40 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME1 1EL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
