Overview

About 8 Kings Road

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

8 Kings Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Bournemouth (BH3 7LD). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1206 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 112 m² this is the 17th smallest of 24 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 58–179 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 24 units on file.

Held since November 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 112 m² the property is well over the postcode median (76 m² across 23 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £319,000 sits 268.8% above the 1997 sale of £86,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£72/sq ft) was about 45.2% below the postcode norm.

How to read this page

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 8 Kings Road is modelled from its 112 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BH3 7LD. 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 8 Kings Road. 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 8 Kings Road was lodged in April 2014 at band E and expired in April 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 8 Kings Road. 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 28 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH3 7LD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
