Overview

About 16 Brissenden Close

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

16 Brissenden Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Upnor, Rochester, Rochester (ME2 4XW). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since December 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £397,000 sits 52.7% above the 2015 sale of £260,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£318/sq ft) was about 23.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2004. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 76 m² it's 16% larger than the typical home in the postcode (66 m² median across 20 EPCs). Last sold in February 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
