About 2a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2a is a three-bedroom detached house in Christchurch (BH23 2HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2020) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump.
Held since November 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1996–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £485,000 sits 56.5% above the 2008 sale of £310,000.
