About Flat 4

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

Flat 4 is a semi-detached house in Bournemouth (BH5 1DX). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2012) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in December 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Good to Very Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Average.
