Overview

About 10 St Swithuns Road South

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

10 St Swithuns Road South is a detached house in Bournemouth (BH1 3RQ). It has a recorded floor area of 391 m² (around 4209 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (March 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 391 m² the property is well over the postcode median (48 m² across 27 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £1,034,000 sits 727.2% above the 1997 sale of £125,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£30/sq ft) was about 90% below the postcode norm.
