Overview

About 23 New Road

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

23 New Road is a semi-detached house in Cliffe, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 7SL). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £313,000 sits 334.7% above the 1999 sale of £72,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£86/sq ft) was about 53.6% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs).
