Overview

About 38a

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

38a is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bournemouth (BH5 2AR). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows a G (score 16), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 30). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 87 m² it's 19.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (73 m² median across 43 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Last sold in March 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. Across the public record there are 7 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 1996–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £260,000 is 28.7% above the 2016 sale price.
