Overview

About 35 Cardington Road

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

35 Cardington Road is a one-bedroom detached house in Bedford (MK42 0BT). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1101 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 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 £369,000 sits 110.9% above the 2009 sale of £175,000.
