About 2 Rowlands Hill
2 Rowlands Hill is a 11-bedroom detached house in Wimborne (BH21 1AN). It has a recorded floor area of 489 m² (around 5264 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2023) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 62), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
Untraded for 30 years, with the last transfer in June 1996. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 489 m² the property is well over the postcode median (120 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). 11 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £923,000 sits 278.3% above the 1996 sale of £244,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£46/sq ft) was about 81.5% below the postcode norm. 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include change of use to residential and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
