About Beach House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Beach House is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bournemouth (BH5 1BL). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 736 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. At 68 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in Beach House, where floor areas span 62–77 m². On EPC score it ranks last in the building (70 versus a best of 75). Other recorded features include notable views. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (September 2008) shows a C (score 70). The latest certificate is from September 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since April 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £284,000 sits 140.7% above the 2000 sale of £118,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£160/sq ft) was about 29.2% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2025.

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 Beach House is modelled from its 68 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BH5 1BL. 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 Beach House. 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 Beach House was lodged in September 2008 at band C and expired in September 2018, 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 Beach House. 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 14 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH5 1BL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Beach House is in council tax band C. 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.
