About Medtha House

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

Medtha House is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Isle Of Grain, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 0DR). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 79 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across Medtha House (56–79 m²). The building's EPC ratings span G to D across 4 units on file. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an F (score 21), near the bottom of the EPC scale. When first surveyed in February 2012 the rating was G, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 68), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in February 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 79 m² it's 17.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (67 m² median across 3 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £133,000 is 47.8% above the 2008 sale price.
