About 214 Castle Lane West
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
214 Castle Lane West is a detached house in Bournemouth (BH9 3LA). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. At 72 m² this is the 9th smallest of 14 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 36–114 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 14 units on file.
It hasn't traded since May 2007, a hold of 19 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. 2 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 2 refused. Across 2006–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £263,000 is 15.1% above the 2007 sale price.
