Overview

About 9 Fairview Drive

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

9 Fairview Drive is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Higham, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 7BG). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, 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.

At 110 m² it's 22% larger than the typical home in the postcode (90 m² median across 17 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £432,000 is 35% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£270/sq ft) was about 18.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in November 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
