Overview

About 5 Aveling Close

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

5 Aveling Close is a semi-detached house in Hoo, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 9BZ). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in October 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, main heating went from Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since June 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £286,000 sits 508.5% above the 1997 sale of £47,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£51/sq ft) was about 69.6% below the postcode norm.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 5 Aveling Close is modelled from its 85 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in ME3 9BZ. 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 5 Aveling Close. 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 5 Aveling Close was lodged in November 2015 at band E and expired in November 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 5 Aveling 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. The 7 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME3 9BZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Aveling Close 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.
