About 10 Flax Close
10 Flax Close is a five-bedroom mid-terrace house in Oakley, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 7PW). It has a recorded floor area of 152 m² (around 1636 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2025) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. The rating has held steady at B across 2 certificates since February 2011. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Average.
It hasn't traded since November 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £423,000 sits 345.3% above the 2007 sale of £95,000. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2015. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
