Overview

About 3a

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

3a is a three-bedroom detached house in Bournemouth (BH3 7JX). It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1152 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 61). The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 107 m² this is the 25th smallest of 32 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 21–299 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 32 units on file. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 107 m² it's 24.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (86 m² median across 31 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 3a is modelled from its 107 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BH3 7JX. 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. 5 sales are recorded for 3a. 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 3a was lodged in October 2014 at band E and expired in October 2024, 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. None is matched to 3a. 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 25 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH3 7JX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3a is in council tax band B. 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.
