About 22a
22a is a detached house in Bournemouth (BH9 1LN). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 567 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 53 m² this is the 15th smallest of 43 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 34–147 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 4 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 53 m² it sits well below the postcode median (78 m² across 42 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs).
