Overview

About Riviera Court

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

Riviera Court is a semi-detached house in Canford Cliffs, Poole, Poole (BH13 7HZ). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 836 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1991-1995. At 78 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across Riviera Court (78–120 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (65 versus a best of 82). The latest certificate (August 2009) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 78 m² it's 21.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (99 m² median across 18 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2001–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £408,000 is 45.7% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£335/sq ft) was about 29.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 Riviera Court is modelled from its 78 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BH13 7HZ. 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. 4 sales are recorded for Riviera Court. 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 Riviera Court was lodged in August 2009 at band D and expired in August 2019, 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 Riviera Court. 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 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH13 7HZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
