Overview

About The Air Balloon

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

The Air Balloon is an end-of-terrace house in Bristol (BS5 8LB). It has a recorded floor area of 35 m² (around 377 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2012-2021. At 35 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across The Air Balloon (35–56 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since December 2015. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and main heating went from Very Poor to Poor; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

At 35 m² it sits well below the postcode median (51 m² across 13 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £189,000 is 30.3% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£385/sq ft) was about 27.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in December 2015, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
