Overview

About 4 Approach Road

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

4 Approach Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Poole (BH14 8BH). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1197 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows a D (score 67), 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 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 111 m² the property is well over the postcode median (66 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2003–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £404,000 is 13.8% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£297/sq ft) was about 45.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £355,000 in August 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Method

How 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 4 Approach Road is modelled from its 111 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BH14 8BH. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 4 Approach Road. 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 4 Approach Road was lodged in August 2011 at band D and expired in August 2021, 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 4 Approach Road. 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 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH14 8BH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
4 Approach Road 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.
