About 7 Station Road

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

7 Station Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Oakley, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 7RB). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2021) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (November 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average.
