About 5 Adelaide Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Adelaide Close is a detached house in Christchurch (BH23 2JW). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since April 1998, a hold of 28 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 92 m² the property is well over the postcode median (61 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
