Overview

About 4 Richmond Wood Road

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

4 Richmond Wood Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bournemouth (BH8 9DH). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1216 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2014. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2007–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £455,000 is 40% above the 2016 sale price.
