How the estimate is made
The estimate for 40a is modelled from its 175 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BH3 7DH. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

About 40a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
40a is a four-bedroom detached house in Bournemouth (BH3 7DH). It has a recorded floor area of 175 m² (around 1879 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since June 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £856,000 sits 61.8% above the 2010 sale of £529,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£281/sq ft) was about 21.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 175 m² it's 18.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (215 m² median across 3 EPCs).

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 40a is modelled from its 175 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BH3 7DH. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 40a. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 40a was lodged in April 2009 at band D and expired in April 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 40a. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 23 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH3 7DH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 40a is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
