About 2 Hawkins Road
2 Hawkins Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bedford (MK42 9LS). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2013) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since May 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £245,000 sits 528.2% above the 1996 sale of £39,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£43/sq ft) was about 60.9% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs).
