How the estimate is made
The estimate for 5d is modelled from its 47 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in ME3 9AR. 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.

About 5d
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5d is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Hoo, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 9AR). It has a recorded floor area of 47 m² (around 506 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2012) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £166,000 sits 107.5% above the 2013 sale of £80,000. At 47 m² it sits well below the postcode median (79 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sold in April 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 5d is modelled from its 47 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in ME3 9AR. 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 5d. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 5d was lodged in June 2012 at band C and expired in June 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 5d. 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. The 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME3 9AR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 5d is in council tax band B. 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.
