Overview

About 21 New Road

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

21 New Road is a semi-detached house in Cliffe, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 7SL). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (January 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since January 2002, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £310,000 sits 189.7% above the 2002 sale of £107,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£136/sq ft) was about 26.3% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs).
