Overview

About 1 Bromham Road

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

1 Bromham Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Biddenham, Bedford, Bedford (MK40 4AF). It has a recorded floor area of 126 m² (around 1351 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (September 2011) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from September 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 126 m² it sits well below the postcode median (225 m² across 45 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2002–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £606,000 is 34.7% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£333/sq ft) was about 52.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
