The estimate for 7a is modelled from its 50 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BH14 9HN. 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.

About 7a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
7a is a semi-detached house in Poole (BH14 9HN). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 50 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (50–106 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 9 units on file. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 21 years, with the last transfer in March 2005. At 50 m² it sits well below the postcode median (93 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

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 7a is modelled from its 50 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BH14 9HN. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 7a. 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 7a was lodged in October 2015 at band D and expired in October 2025, 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 7a. 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 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH14 9HN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 7a is in council tax band A. 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.
