Flat 1 is a mid-terrace house in Bournemouth (BH8 8EH). It has a recorded floor area of 32 m² (around 344 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 32 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 3 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 27–50 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (42 versus a best of 65). The latest certificate (December 2018) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since November 2008. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
Held since December 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 32 m² it sits well below the postcode median (52 m² across 28 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £348,000 is 39.2% above the 1999 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£726/sq ft) was about 397.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
