About 4 Grants Avenue

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

4 Grants Avenue is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Bournemouth (BH1 4NR). It has a recorded floor area of 39 m² (around 420 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 39 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (39–127 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (June 2025) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 4 certificates since October 2013. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average; while main heating dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since January 2004, a hold of 22 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £121,000 sits 101.7% above the 2004 sale of £60,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£143/sq ft) was about 29.4% below the postcode norm.
