About 3 Brook Way
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Brook Way is a three-bedroom detached house in Christchurch (BH23 4HA). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since December 2011. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
At 66 m² it sits well below the postcode median (138 m² across 5 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Across 2002–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £643,000 is 38.3% above the 2012 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£655/sq ft) was about 110.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in December 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
