Overview

About Flat 2

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

Flat 2 is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bournemouth (BH1 1JH). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (January 2023) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (May 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74).

It hasn't traded since April 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 81 m² the property is well over the postcode median (35 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £256,000 is 24.9% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£235/sq ft) was about 30.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 Flat 2 is modelled from its 81 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BH1 1JH. 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. 4 sales are recorded for Flat 2. 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 Flat 2 was lodged in January 2023 at band D and is valid until January 2033. 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 Flat 2. 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 13 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH1 1JH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
