About 19 Alder Road
19 Alder Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Sturminster Newton (DT10 1AB). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The property has an EV charger on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (June 2012) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since April 2012. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 100 m² the property is well over the postcode median (55 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2002–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £429,000 is 12.3% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£355/sq ft) was about 96.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold December 2022 for £382,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
