About 1 Castle Lane West

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

1 Castle Lane West is a three-bedroom detached house in Bournemouth (BH9 3LJ). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement.
