About 79a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
79a is a detached house in Bournemouth (BH9 1DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 733 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1950-1966. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since December 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 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £212,000 sits 66.3% above the 2009 sale of £127,500.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 79a is modelled from its 68 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BH9 1DQ. 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 79a. 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 79a was lodged in February 2009 at band D and expired in February 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 79a. 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 30 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH9 1DQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
