About 7 Ambleside
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
7 Ambleside is a two-bedroom detached house in Christchurch (BH23 2RZ). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1018 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in August 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2005–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £422,000 sits 53.5% above the 2009 sale of £275,000.
