About Flat 4
Flat 4 is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bournemouth (BH9 2EE). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2007-2011. Tenure is freehold. At 52 m² this is the 4th smallest of 5 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 50–52 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (August 2023) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (August 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81).
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in August 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £202,000 is 13.5% above the 2007 sale price.
