About 4 Little Oakham Court
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
4 Little Oakham Court is a four-bedroom detached house in Lower Stoke, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 9HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since December 2007 — that's 19 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. Today's modelled estimate of £387,000 sits 68.3% above the 2007 sale of £230,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£194/sq ft) was about 32.4% below the postcode norm.
