Overview

About 9 Copperfield Crescent

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

9 Copperfield Crescent is a five-bedroom detached house in Higham, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 7NJ). It has a recorded floor area of 280 m² (around 3014 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 61), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views and a self-contained annexe.

It hasn't traded since February 2006, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. At 280 m² the property is well over the postcode median (171 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 9 Copperfield Crescent is modelled from its 280 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME3 7NJ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 9 Copperfield Crescent. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 9 Copperfield Crescent was lodged in October 2015 at band F and expired in October 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 9 Copperfield Crescent. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 14 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME3 7NJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
9 Copperfield Crescent is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
