About 18a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
18a is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bournemouth (BH1 4LQ). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. At 65 m² this is the 9th smallest of 11 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 41–65 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (December 2017) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73).
It hasn't traded since November 1999, 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. Today's modelled estimate of £191,000 sits 159.9% above the 1999 sale of £73,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£105/sq ft) was about 22.7% below the postcode norm. At 65 m² it's 27.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (51 m² median across 10 EPCs).

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 18a is modelled from its 65 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BH1 4LQ. 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 18a. 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 18a was lodged in December 2017 at band D and is valid until December 2027. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 18a. 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 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH1 4LQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
