About 19 May Street
19 May Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cuxton, Rochester, Rochester (ME2 1LR). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2019) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £251,000 sits 141.3% above the 2009 sale of £104,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£129/sq ft) was about 28.1% below the postcode norm.
