About 13 Bristol Close
13 Bristol Close is a mid-terrace house in Rochester (ME2 2QG). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (January 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since July 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 94 m² the property is well over the postcode median (68 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £265,000 sits 636.1% above the 1996 sale of £36,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£36/sq ft) was about 81.4% below the postcode norm.
