Overview

About 8 Eastgate Terrace

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

8 Eastgate Terrace is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Rochester (ME1 1ES). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2024) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in November 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 87). The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
