About 18 Bishop Road
18 Bishop Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Bournemouth (BH9 1HB). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since December 2012. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 27 years, with the last transfer in October 1999. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £374,000 sits 283.6% above the 1999 sale of £97,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£96/sq ft) was about 48% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).
