About 21 High View

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

21 High View is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Higham, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 7HR). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump.
