Overview

About Beach Close

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

Beach Close is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Branksome Park, Poole, Poole (BH13 7BS). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. At 94 m² this is the 8th smallest of 12 units on EPC record in Beach Close, where floor areas span 89–102 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in August 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2006–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £400,000 is 38% above the 2007 sale price.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Beach Close is modelled from its 94 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BH13 7BS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for Beach Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Beach Close was lodged in July 2013 at band C and expired in July 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Beach Close. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH13 7BS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Beach Close is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
