About Flat 1
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 1 is a semi-detached house in Poole (BH14 0QG). It has a recorded floor area of 17 m² (around 183 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. At 17 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 6 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 16–25 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (46 versus a best of 62). The latest certificate (March 2024) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot.
Today's modelled estimate of £191,000 is 55.6% below the 2025 sale of £430,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£2,350/sq ft) was about 1102.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. A recent sale: £430,000 in October 2025. At 17 m² it sits well below the postcode median (79 m² across 28 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs).

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 Flat 1 is modelled from its 17 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BH14 0QG. 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 Flat 1. 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 Flat 1 was lodged in March 2024 at band E and is valid until March 2034. 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 Flat 1. 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 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH14 0QG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Flat 1 is in council tax band C. 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.
