Overview

About 3 Bristol & West House

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

3 Bristol & West House is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bournemouth (BH1 1BL). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Period features are noted in the property record. At 81 m² this is the 31st smallest of 38 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 33–87 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (May 2016); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

At 81 m² the property is well over the postcode median (59 m² across 37 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs). Last sold in February 2018, so it's been off the market for around 8 years.

How to read this page

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 3 Bristol & West House is modelled from its 81 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BH1 1BL. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 3 Bristol & West House. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 3 Bristol & West House was lodged in May 2026 at band D and is valid until May 2036. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 3 Bristol & West House. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 9 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH1 1BL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 Bristol & West House is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
