Overview

About 96 Gravesend Road

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

96 Gravesend Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Rochester (ME2 3PN). It has a recorded floor area of 123 m² (around 1324 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a loft. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It hasn't traded since November 2006, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. Across 1997–2006, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £421,000 sits 68.4% above the 2006 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£189/sq ft) was about 31.8% below the postcode norm.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 96 Gravesend Road is modelled from its 123 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME2 3PN. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 96 Gravesend Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 96 Gravesend Road was lodged in June 2016 at band E and expired in June 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 96 Gravesend Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 17 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME2 3PN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
96 Gravesend Road is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
