Overview

About Apartment 1

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

Apartment 1 is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Weymouth (DT3 6PX). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2024) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average, lighting went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Average. Main heating runs on electricity. At 88 m² this is the 7th smallest of 10 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 78–100 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a balcony.

Held since October 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 82% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £312,000 is 20% above the 2006 sale price.
