About 28 Dolphin Quays
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
28 Dolphin Quays is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Poole (BH15 1HH). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1583 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (December 2009) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from December 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 147 m² this is the 78th smallest of 85 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 46–280 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top. Other recorded features include a balcony and notable views.
Across 2006–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £426,000 is 12.2% below the 2013 sale of £485,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. At 147 m² the property is well over the postcode median (88 m² across 84 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Last changed hands 13 years ago, in June 2013.

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 28 Dolphin Quays is modelled from its 147 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BH15 1HH. 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 28 Dolphin Quays. 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 28 Dolphin Quays was lodged in December 2009 at band B and expired in December 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 28 Dolphin Quays. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH15 1HH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 28 Dolphin Quays is in council tax band F. 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.
