About 28a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
28a is a semi-detached house in Bournemouth (BH1 4DW). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2022) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (February 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). At 69 m² this is the 31st smallest of 47 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 19–202 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 47 units on file.
It hasn't traded since February 2000, a hold of 27 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. At 69 m² the property is well over the postcode median (48 m² across 46 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £163,000 sits 288.1% above the 2000 sale of £42,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£57/sq ft) was about 69.6% below the postcode norm.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 28a is modelled from its 69 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BH1 4DW. 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 28a. 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 28a was lodged in March 2022 at band D and is valid until March 2032. 5 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 28a. 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 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH1 4DW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 28a is in council tax band B. 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.
