Overview

About 78 Wimborne Road

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

78 Wimborne Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Bournemouth (BH3 7AS). It has a recorded floor area of 274 m² (around 2948 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an F (score 29), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.

It hasn't traded since July 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. At 274 m² the property is well over the postcode median (59 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 2 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £911,000 sits 153.1% above the 2001 sale of £360,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£122/sq ft) was about 40.5% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2025.
