Overview

About Waves

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

Waves is a two-bedroom detached house in Bournemouth (BH5 1AA). It has council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2009) returns a high B (score 85), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Waves has 14 units on EPC record across the postcode. The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (85 versus a worst of 76).

Held since July 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £250,000 is 26.9% above the 2009 sale price.
