Overview

About Olympus

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

Olympus is a detached house in Poole (BH14 8SZ). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2026) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in November 2016 the rating was C, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. At 86 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 8 units on EPC record in Olympus, where floor areas span 82–152 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the top.

Today's modelled estimate of £385,000 is 81.9% below the 2023 sale of £2,125,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£2,296/sq ft) was about 464% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 86 m² the property is well over the postcode median (55 m² across 52 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works, an extension, a porch and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sale on file: £2,125,000 in February 2023.

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 Olympus is modelled from its 86 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BH14 8SZ. 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 Olympus. 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 Olympus was lodged in January 2026 at band B and is valid until January 2036. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 5 applications are matched to Olympus. 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 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH14 8SZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Olympus is in council tax band E. 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.
