About 12 Durham Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
12 Durham Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Gillingham (ME8 0JW). It has a recorded floor area of 162 m² (around 1744 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since December 2015. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 162 m² it's 23.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (132 m² median across 18 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Last sold in April 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. Today's modelled estimate of £538,000 is 41.6% above the 2016 sale price.

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 12 Durham Road is modelled from its 162 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in ME8 0JW. 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 12 Durham Road. 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 12 Durham Road was lodged in June 2016 at band F and expired in June 2026, 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 12 Durham Road. 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 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME8 0JW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 12 Durham Road is in council tax band E. 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.
