Overview

About Hedgehogs Niche

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

Hedgehogs Niche is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Cliffe, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 7SS). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since September 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2000–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £374,000 sits 82.4% above the 2007 sale of £205,000.
