Overview

About 39 High Street

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

39 High Street is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Cranfield, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 0DP). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (April 2018) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 116), a 3-band jump.

5 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 55 m² it sits well below the postcode median (107 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £273,000 is 30% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£355/sq ft) was about 81.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in February 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 39 High Street is modelled from its 55 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in MK43 0DP. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 39 High Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 39 High Street was lodged in April 2018 at band D and is valid until April 2028. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 5 applications are matched to 39 High Street. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 20 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK43 0DP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
39 High Street is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
