About 70 Rochester Road

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

70 Rochester Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Cuxton, Rochester, Rochester (ME2 1AG). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2018) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump.
