About 9 Hawkins Road
9 Hawkins Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bedford (MK42 9LS). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2022) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since January 2012. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump.
Held since October 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. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £243,000 sits 63.1% above the 2007 sale of £148,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£165/sq ft) was about 49.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
