Overview

About 8a

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

8a is a semi-detached house in Bournemouth (BH9 1BB). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in June 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £340,000 sits 183.3% above the 2020 sale of £120,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£103/sq ft) was about 49.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 80% of similar EPCs). Sold October 2020 for £120,000.
