About 6 Maxwell Road
6 Maxwell Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Bournemouth (BH9 1DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (November 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 60 m² this is the 5th smallest of 48 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 37–230 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 48 units on file.
Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1999–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £206,000 sits 76.1% above the 2009 sale of £117,000. At 60 m² it's 15.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (71 m² median across 47 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs).
