About 10a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
10a is an end-of-terrace house in Christchurch (BH23 1DT). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 61), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 85 m² this is the 5th smallest of 8 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 55–229 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 8 units on file.
