3 Abbots Court is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Hoo, Rochester, Rochester (ME3 9LS). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2012. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
At 97 m² the property is well over the postcode median (66 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £329,000 sits 64.5% above the 2012 sale of £199,995.
