Overview

About 25 Lynn Close

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

25 Lynn Close is a mid-terrace house in Elstow, Bedford, Bedford (MK42 9YP). It has a recorded floor area of 150 m² (around 1615 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). Main heating runs on oil. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Held since June 2000 — that's 26 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 150 m² the property is well over the postcode median (88 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £354,000 sits 391.7% above the 2000 sale of £72,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£45/sq ft) was about 47.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

    Extension: Single storey · Rear of property

    Prior notification for single storey rear extension(s) between 3 and 6 metres depth.
