About 15 Alamein Avenue
15 Alamein Avenue is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bedford (MK42 0DE). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2022) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since July 2010. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good, lighting went from Good to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
Held since April 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £301,000 sits 90.5% above the 2007 sale of £158,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 109 m² it's 28.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (85 m² median across 16 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs).
