Your note and figure are shown publicly on this page.
The estimate for 1a is modelled from its 165 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME2 3PX. 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.

1a is a four-bedroom detached house in Rochester (ME2 3PX). It has a recorded floor area of 165 m² (around 1776 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since December 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 165 m² the property is well over the postcode median (92 m² across 21 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2001–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £489,000 sits 60.3% above the 2014 sale of £305,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£172/sq ft) was about 20.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2025. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in December 2014 and unlisted since — roughly 12 years.
1a's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
