12 Ambleside, Weymouth, DT3 5HH

12 Ambleside is a five-bedroom detached house in Weymouth (DT3 5HH). It has a recorded floor area of 173 m² (around 1862 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2019) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since March 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 173 m² the property is well over the postcode median (123 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £462,000 sits 437.2% above the 1997 sale of £86,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£46/sq ft) was about 80.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
