Overview

About 7 Prebend Street

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

7 Prebend Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bedford (MK40 1QN). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 778 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64). The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £186,000 sits 77.1% above the 2009 sale of £105,000. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2010.
