About The Bungalow
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
The Bungalow is a three-bedroom detached house in Gillingham (ME7 1DU). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1040 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2010) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since August 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 42). The latest certificate is from January 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £287,000 sits 51.1% above the 2010 sale of £190,000.

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 The Bungalow is modelled from its 97 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in ME7 1DU. 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 The Bungalow. 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 The Bungalow was lodged in January 2010 at band F and expired in January 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 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 The Bungalow. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 27 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME7 1DU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- The Bungalow is in council tax band C. 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.
