Overview

About 8 Brereton Road

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

8 Brereton Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bedford (MK40 1HU). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 999 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £204,000 sits 77.4% above the 2009 sale of £115,000.
