Overview

About 6a

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

6a is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bournemouth (BH9 2SA). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (July 2022) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (October 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 55 m² this is the 7th smallest of 33 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 25–178 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 33 units on file.

Untraded for 26 years, with the last transfer in July 2000. 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 £180,000 sits 200% above the 2000 sale of £60,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£101/sq ft) was about 51.8% below the postcode norm. At 55 m² it sits well below the postcode median (95 m² across 32 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs).
