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

28 St Laurence Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bapchild, Sittingbourne, Sittingbourne (ME9 9NB). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.
