Overview

About 18 Clarendon Drive

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

18 Clarendon Drive is a five-bedroom detached house in Strood, Rochester, Rochester (ME2 3LT). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in January 2016 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £542,000 sits 77.7% above the 2007 sale of £305,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£232/sq ft) was about 30.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
