Overview

About 1 Cooling Road

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

1 Cooling Road is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Cliffe, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 7RY). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 679 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2012) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 55). The latest certificate is from February 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 63 m² it sits well below the postcode median (99 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). 10 years since the last transfer (March 2016). Across the public record there are 6 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2017. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1999–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £264,000 is 32.9% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£293/sq ft) was about 58.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Cooling Road is modelled from its 63 m² EPC floor area, its 6 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME3 7RY. 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. 6 sales are recorded for 1 Cooling Road. 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 1 Cooling Road was lodged in February 2012 at band E and expired in February 2022, 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. 1 application is matched to 1 Cooling Road. 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 2 schools and 9 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME3 7RY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Cooling Road is in council tax band B. 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.
