About Flat 2
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 2 is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bedford (MK40 3EU). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 527 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2019) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). Main heating runs on electricity. At 49 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 10 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 41–87 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 10 units on file.
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 £163,000 sits 50.9% above the 2009 sale of £108,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£205/sq ft) was about 18.5% below the postcode norm.
