Overview

About 20 Moat Farm Close

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

20 Moat Farm Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Marston Moretaine, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 0AE). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2002–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £368,000 sits 50.2% above the 2014 sale of £245,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£288/sq ft) was about 57.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 79 m² it sits well below the postcode median (131 m² across 21 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in December 2014, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
