Overview

About 1 Wihtred Road

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

1 Wihtred Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bapchild, Sittingbourne, Sittingbourne (ME9 9ND). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2012) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since May 1995, a hold of 31 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £283,000 sits 381.8% above the 1995 sale of £58,737. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£97/sq ft) was about 65.6% below the postcode norm. At 56 m² it sits well below the postcode median (81 m² across 21 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
