Overview

About 21 Willow Springs

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

21 Willow Springs is a four-bedroom detached house in Cranfield, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 0DS). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1243 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in November 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £455,000 sits 82% above the 2009 sale of £250,000.
