Overview

About 73a

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

73a is a one-bedroom detached house in Bournemouth (BH8 8SL). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 58 m² this is the 5th smallest of 39 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 14–179 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 39 units on file. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (October 2024) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since October 2024. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72).

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in June 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 58 m² it sits well below the postcode median (119 m² across 38 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £184,000 is 47.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£200/sq ft) was about 22.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 73a is modelled from its 58 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BH8 8SL. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 73a. 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 73a was lodged in October 2024 at band D and is valid until October 2034. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 73a. 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 28 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH8 8SL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
