About 15 Aspley Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
15 Aspley Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bedford (MK42 9JU). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2021) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in December 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77).
It hasn't traded since November 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. Across 2002–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £240,000 sits 92% above the 2009 sale of £125,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£133/sq ft) was about 22.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
