Overview

About 11 Walnut Grove

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

11 Walnut Grove is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Lidlington, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 0SP). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1070 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2010) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 99 m² the property is well over the postcode median (46 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1997–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £329,000 sits 77.8% above the 2013 sale of £185,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in September 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
