Overview

About 11 Howlsmere Close

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

11 Howlsmere Close is a semi-detached house in Halling, Rochester, Rochester (ME2 1ER). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since July 2004 — that's 22 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across 1996–2004, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £342,000 sits 113.8% above the 2004 sale of £159,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£270/sq ft) was about 43.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: a garage conversion approved in 2015. Past consents include a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 55 m² it's 26.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (75 m² median across 13 EPCs).

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 11 Howlsmere Close is modelled from its 55 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME2 1ER. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 11 Howlsmere Close. 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 11 Howlsmere Close was lodged in April 2015 at band D and expired in April 2025, 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 11 Howlsmere Close. 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 7 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME2 1ER, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
11 Howlsmere Close is in council tax band D. 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.
