About Amberwood Grange
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Amberwood Grange is a property in Bournemouth (BH1 1HY). It has a recorded floor area of 30 m² (around 323 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2026) shows an F (score 26), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 64), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. At 30 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 14 units on EPC record in Amberwood Grange, where floor areas span 24–100 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (26 versus a best of 70).
Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in October 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Amberwood Grange is modelled from its 30 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BH1 1HY. 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 Amberwood Grange. 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 Amberwood Grange was lodged in April 2026 at band F and is valid until April 2036. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Amberwood Grange. 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 17 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH1 1HY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Amberwood Grange is in council tax band A. 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.
