About 6 Dove Lane

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

6 Dove Lane is a semi-detached house in Harrold, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 7DF). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump.
