About 3 Bridge Street
3 Bridge Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bourton, Gillingham, Gillingham (SP8 5BA). It has a recorded floor area of 45 m² (around 484 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since February 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. Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £314,000 sits 57% above the 2007 sale of £200,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£413/sq ft) was about 176.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 45 m² it sits well below the postcode median (101 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
