About 4 Chequers Lane
4 Chequers Lane is a two-bedroom detached house in North Crawley, Newport Pagnell, Newport Pagnell (MK16 9LJ). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 751 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a G (score 14), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to E (score 42), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
It hasn't traded since March 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. At 70 m² it sits well below the postcode median (193 m² across 4 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 34.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £336,000 is 36.6% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£327/sq ft) was about 50.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
