About 18 Churchville Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
18 Churchville Road is a mid-terrace house in Bedford (MK42 9PT). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2019) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since July 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area.
