About Earls Court
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Earls Court is a semi-detached house in Bournemouth (BH1 3ED). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 1001 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (April 2024) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in May 2019 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 93 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 11 units on EPC record in Earls Court, where floor areas span 84–130 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 71).
Across 1996–2025, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £271,000 is 12.6% below the 2025 sale of £310,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£310/sq ft) was about 61.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It changed hands recently, sold March 2025 for £310,000. 9 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations.

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 Earls Court is modelled from its 93 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BH1 3ED. 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. 5 sales are recorded for Earls Court. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
