Overview

About 1 Rock Road

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

1 Rock Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Penenden Heath, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME14 2AN). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 984 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2011) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). The latest certificate is from December 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 91 m² it's 23.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (120 m² median across 10 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs). Across 2004–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £319,000 is 46.7% above the 2012 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£221/sq ft) was about 17.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in March 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.

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 1 Rock Road is modelled from its 91 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME14 2AN. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 1 Rock Road. 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 1 Rock Road was lodged in December 2011 at band E and expired in December 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. None is matched to 1 Rock Road. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME14 2AN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Rock Road 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.
