How this area has changed
Typical prices for terraced houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to September 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Darnley Road | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector ME2 2 | £290,000 | £246,250 +18% since | £199,995 +45% since | £137,500 +111% since | £128,000 +127% since |
| Rochester upon Medway | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
How homes change hands in ME2 2, over the last five years (1,061 sales):
- What sells: 39% terraced, 37% semi-detached, 14% flats, 7% detached, 3% other.
- 15% sold leasehold, and 8% were new builds.
- 158 sales in the last twelve months, against 373 in the same twelve months five years ago.
