About Higham Heights
Higham Heights is a semi-detached house in Poole (BH15 1TU). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. At 69 m² this is the 5th smallest of 6 units on EPC record in Higham Heights, where floor areas span 58–69 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (73 versus a best of 81). The latest certificate (April 2015) shows a C (score 73). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since November 2013. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Average to Poor. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in August 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. 4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused, 1 pending. An active application for tree works is awaiting a decision. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. Across 2006–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at -1.1% per year.
