Overview

About 20 Povey Avenue

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

20 Povey Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wainscott, Rochester, Rochester (ME2 4LZ). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
