About 16 Caldew Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16 Caldew Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Gillingham (ME8 6TP). It has a recorded floor area of 125 m² (around 1348 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since September 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 125 m² the property is well over the postcode median (91 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £283,000 sits 84.4% above the 2009 sale of £153,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£114/sq ft) was about 33.8% below the postcode norm.

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 16 Caldew Avenue is modelled from its 125 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME8 6TP. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 16 Caldew Avenue. 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 16 Caldew Avenue was lodged in November 2008 at band D and expired in November 2018, 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. None is matched to 16 Caldew Avenue. 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 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME8 6TP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 16 Caldew Avenue is in council tax band B. 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.
