About 6e

6e is a semi-detached house in Bedford (MK40 3DH). It has a recorded floor area of 28 m² (around 301 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 28 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 32 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 26–334 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 32 units on file.
