Overview

About 14 Hudson Close

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

14 Hudson Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Lidlington, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 0RE). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 67 m² it sits well below the postcode median (97 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sold in January 2018, so it's been off the market for around 8 years. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 1997–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £325,000 is 18.2% above the 2018 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£381/sq ft) was about 70.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
