Overview

About 8 Burts Cottages

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

8 Burts Cottages is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Gaunts Common, Wimborne, Wimborne (BH21 4JW). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1179 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since July 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 110 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £508,000 is 42.7% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£302/sq ft) was about 21.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
