About 24a

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

24a is a two-bedroom detached house in Bournemouth (BH5 2JL). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 575 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 53 m² it sits well below the postcode median (117 m² across 12 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
