About 1 Falconer Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Falconer Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Poole (BH15 4QQ). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. Tenure is freehold. Other recorded features include notable views. The latest certificate (December 2018) shows a C (score 72). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84).
It hasn't traded since October 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area.

Today's modelled estimate of £494,000 sits 280.1% above the 1998 sale of £129,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£114/sq ft) was about 57.8% below the postcode norm.

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 1 Falconer Drive is modelled from its 106 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BH15 4QQ. 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 1 Falconer Drive. 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 1 Falconer Drive was lodged in December 2018 at band C and is valid until December 2028. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 Falconer Drive. 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 14 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH15 4QQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Falconer Drive 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.
