Overview

About 4 Ashby Close

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

4 Ashby Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Halling, Rochester, Rochester (ME2 1DF). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in August 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 97 m² the property is well over the postcode median (73 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £439,000 sits 56.8% above the 2014 sale of £279,995. Last sold in July 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
