About 17 Burnside
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
17 Burnside is a semi-detached house in Christchurch (BH23 4QZ). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. At 62 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (62–87 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (51 versus a best of 75). The latest certificate (December 2013) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve.
