About 4 Ringwood Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
4 Ringwood Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Gillingham (ME8 0DX). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 801 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Across 2007–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at -0.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £327,000 sits 81.7% above the 2012 sale of £180,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£225/sq ft) was about 20.2% below the postcode norm. At 74 m² it's 20.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (94 m² median across 4 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Last sold in February 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.

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 4 Ringwood Close is modelled from its 74 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME8 0DX. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 4 Ringwood 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 4 Ringwood Close was lodged in February 2009 at band D and expired in February 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 4 Ringwood 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME8 0DX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 4 Ringwood Close is in council tax band D. 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.
