8 Vicarage Road is a six-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bournemouth (BH9 2SA). It has a recorded floor area of 132 m² (around 1421 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2019) shows a C (score 73). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since August 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83).
It hasn't traded since September 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 132 m² the property is well over the postcode median (94 m² across 32 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 72% of similar EPCs). 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £370,000 sits 81.8% above the 2008 sale of £203,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£143/sq ft) was about 36.6% below the postcode norm.
