1 Brookside is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Hoo, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 9AR). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80).
