About 140 Alma Road
140 Alma Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Bournemouth (BH9 1AJ). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. At 63 m² this is the 13th smallest of 32 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 8–199 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the top.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good.
It hasn't traded since July 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £200,000 sits 69.9% above the 2007 sale of £117,694.
