About The Arches
The Arches is a detached house in Corfe Mullen, Wimborne, Wimborne (BH21 3EF). It has a recorded floor area of 178 m² (around 1916 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1976-1982. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £700,000 is 65% below the 2020 sale of £2,000,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition.
