Overview

About 43 Rochester Road

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

43 Rochester Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Halling, Rochester, Rochester (ME2 1AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 595 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2010) shows an F (score 33), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 60), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 2010 — that's 15 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 55 m² it sits well below the postcode median (90 m² across 25 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 £349,000 sits 58.6% above the 2010 sale of £220,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£370/sq ft) was about 54.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2011. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
