About 19 Beech Road
19 Beech Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Rochester (ME2 2LP). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2018) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good, lighting went from Poor to Average and main heating went from Very Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since May 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 £276,000 sits 140.7% above the 2009 sale of £114,648. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£140/sq ft) was about 40.2% below the postcode norm.
