Overview

About Nethercroft

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

Nethercroft is a two-bedroom detached house in Rochester (ME1 3DG). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 680 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows a G (score 17), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 36). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a corner plot.

At 63 m² it sits well below the postcode median (92 m² across 13 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £329,000 sits 77.8% above the 2011 sale of £185,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£272/sq ft) was about 31.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2014.

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 Nethercroft is modelled from its 63 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in ME1 3DG. 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 Nethercroft. 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 Nethercroft was lodged in August 2011 at band G and expired in August 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Nethercroft. 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 37 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME1 3DG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Nethercroft is in council tax band E. 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.
