About 5b
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5b is a four-bedroom detached house in Poole (BH13 7EN). It has a recorded floor area of 377 m² (around 4058 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band H. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from August 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot.
6 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £2,899,000 is 16% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£616/sq ft) was about 77.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £2,500,000 in September 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 5b is modelled from its 377 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BH13 7EN. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 5b. 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 5b was lodged in August 2016 at band D and expired in August 2026, 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. 6 applications are matched to 5b. 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 10 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH13 7EN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 5b is in council tax band H. 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.
