About 4 Gosling Close
4 Gosling Close is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Poole (BH17 8QR). It has a recorded floor area of 181 m² (around 1948 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a D (score 61), 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 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2005–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 1.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £412,000 is 29% above the 2016 sale price.
