Overview

About 9 Holmes Close

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

9 Holmes Close is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in High Halstow, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 8RY). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 584 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since November 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1998–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £264,000 sits 95.6% above the 2008 sale of £135,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£231/sq ft) was about 18.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 54 m² it's 21.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (69 m² median across 15 EPCs).
