About 20 Butler Drive
20 Butler Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Lidlington, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 0UQ). It has a recorded floor area of 141 m² (around 1513 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2010) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since January 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The latest certificate is from April 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in April 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 141 m² the property is well over the postcode median (96 m² across 31 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £507,000 sits 65% above the 2007 sale of £307,220. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£203/sq ft) was about 15.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2022. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
