Overview

About 5 Greensand Ridge

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

5 Greensand Ridge is a four-bedroom detached house in Lidlington, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 0PB). It has a recorded floor area of 193 m² (around 2077 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a C (score 71). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 193 m² the property is well over the postcode median (127 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1999–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £533,000 sits 84.7% above the 2013 sale of £288,500. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in August 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
