About Greenlea
Greenlea is a four-bedroom detached house in Chalbury, Wimborne, Wimborne (BH21 7ET). It has a recorded floor area of 197 m² (around 2120 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (March 2025) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in September 2023 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good. Main heating runs on oil. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.
It hasn't traded since December 2007, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 197 m² the property is well over the postcode median (80 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £746,000 sits 82% above the 2007 sale of £410,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£193/sq ft) was about 31.5% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
