Local market context
10 Arcadia Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Christchurch (BH23 2JE). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
It hasn't traded since October 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £380,000 sits 329.4% above the 1998 sale of £88,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£89/sq ft) was about 60.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension and an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs).
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
