About The Rustics
The Rustics is a detached house in Frinsted, Sittingbourne, Sittingbourne (ME9 0TF). It has a recorded floor area of 144 m² (around 1550 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1967-1975. The latest certificate (November 2017) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.
It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 144 m² the property is well over the postcode median (105 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £677,000 sits 81.7% above the 2007 sale of £372,500. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
