Overview

About Bracken Court

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

Bracken Court is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bournemouth (BH1 1HX). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2025) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in December 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 80 m² this is the 6th smallest of 8 units on EPC record in Bracken Court, where floor areas span 70–90 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (44 versus a best of 79).

It hasn't traded since May 1995, a hold of 31 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £214,000 sits 234.4% above the 1995 sale of £64,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£74/sq ft) was about 61.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2019. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Bracken Court is modelled from its 80 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BH1 1HX. 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 Bracken Court. 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 Bracken Court was lodged in February 2025 at band E and is valid until February 2035. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Bracken Court. 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 18 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH1 1HX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Bracken Court 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.
