Overview

About 79 Shakespeare Road

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

79 Shakespeare Road is a mid-terrace house in Gillingham (ME7 5QN). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in June 2008. 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 £214,000 sits 79.8% above the 2008 sale of £119,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£163/sq ft) was about 54.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2008.
