Overview

About Marina Court

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

Marina Court is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Boscombe, Bournemouth, Bournemouth (BH5 1BE). It has a recorded floor area of 45 m² (around 484 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. At 45 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across Marina Court (45–75 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 15 units on file. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 45 m² it sits well below the postcode median (65 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1995–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.7% per year.

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 Marina Court is modelled from its 45 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BH5 1BE. 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. 3 sales are recorded for Marina Court. 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 Marina Court was lodged in March 2014 at band E and expired in March 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 Marina Court. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 15 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH5 1BE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Marina Court is in council tax band D. 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.
