Overview

About 6 West Street

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

6 West Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Rochester (ME2 3XG). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2020) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in June 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 90).

It hasn't traded since February 2009, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £203,000 sits 146.1% above the 2009 sale of £82,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£108/sq ft) was about 44.8% below the postcode norm.
