About 6 Rolvenden Road
6 Rolvenden Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wainscott, Rochester, Rochester (ME2 4NY). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2022) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (September 2009); the latest reading is one band lower.

Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £356,000 sits 97.8% above the 2009 sale of £180,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£214/sq ft) was about 28.5% below the postcode norm. At 78 m² it's 18.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (96 m² median across 12 EPCs).
