Overview

About 15 Highfield Crescent

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

15 Highfield Crescent is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Brogborough, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 0XZ). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2008–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £291,000 sits 69.2% above the 2013 sale of £172,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£225/sq ft) was about 48% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in July 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
