Overview

About 1a

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

1a is a three-bedroom detached house in Bournemouth (BH9 1QB). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2018) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since December 2008. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Average; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in December 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2008–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £326,000 is 47.5% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£223/sq ft) was about 23.6% below the postcode norm.
