Overview

About 2 Lapwing Road

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

2 Lapwing Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Isle Of Grain, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 0EB). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £287,000 sits 105% above the 2013 sale of £140,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£191/sq ft) was about 41.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). Last sold in December 2013, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
