About 4 Dover Road
4 Dover Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Poole (BH13 6DZ). It has a recorded floor area of 171 m² (around 1841 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
Held since May 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 171 m² it sits well below the postcode median (335 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 5 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
