Overview

About 1 Fay Close

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

1 Fay Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Rochester (ME1 1LZ). It has a recorded floor area of 139 m² (around 1493 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a C (score 70). The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1999–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £569,000 sits 72.4% above the 2009 sale of £330,000.
