About 15 Charlbury Court

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

15 Charlbury Court is a mid-terrace house in Bedford (MK40 3AE). It has a recorded floor area of 44 m² (around 474 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. At 44 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (44–62 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top.

Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Poor.
