Overview

About 2 Dove Lane

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

2 Dove Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in Harrold, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 7DF). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1432 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 48). The latest certificate is from May 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

6 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 133 m² it's 27.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (104 m² median across 10 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Across 2001–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £574,000 is 14.8% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£349/sq ft) was about 44% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
