Overview

About 16 Longfield Avenue

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

16 Longfield Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in High Halstow, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 8TD). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an E (score 53), 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 March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 69 m² it sits well below the postcode median (122 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £341,000 is 28.7% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£357/sq ft) was about 47.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
