Overview

About 1 Brookfields

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

1 Brookfields is a four-bedroom detached house in Pavenham, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 7QA). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1187 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (September 2009) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since December 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2002–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £534,000 sits 64.3% above the 2009 sale of £325,000. At 110 m² it sits well below the postcode median (210 m² across 3 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Brookfields is modelled from its 110 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in MK43 7QA. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 1 Brookfields. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 Brookfields was lodged in September 2009 at band E and expired in September 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 1 Brookfields. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 21 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK43 7QA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Brookfields is in council tax band F. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
