Overview

About 21 Cecil Avenue

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

21 Cecil Avenue is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Rochester (ME2 3EA). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (October 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since May 2001 — that's 25 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. Today's modelled estimate of £238,000 sits 417.4% above the 2001 sale of £46,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£47/sq ft) was about 65.8% below the postcode norm. At 91 m² it's 18.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (77 m² median across 30 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).
