About 11 Newbury Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
11 Newbury Close is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cliffe Woods, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 8HU). It has a recorded floor area of 48 m² (around 517 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 48 m² this is the 7th smallest of 24 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 47–58 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (June 2021) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (July 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since March 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £147,000 sits 539.1% above the 1998 sale of £23,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£45/sq ft) was about 69.5% below the postcode norm.

- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 11 Newbury Close is modelled from its 48 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in ME3 8HU. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 11 Newbury Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC

- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 11 Newbury Close. 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.

- Council tax band
- 11 Newbury Close is in council tax band A. 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.
