About 6 Briar Dale
6 Briar Dale is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Higham, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 7EE). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1206 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since November 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £411,000 sits 53.4% above the 2007 sale of £268,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£222/sq ft) was about 29.9% below the postcode norm. At 112 m² it's 25.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (89 m² median across 7 EPCs).
