Overview

About 26 Grenidge Way

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

26 Grenidge Way is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Oakley, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 7SE). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows an F (score 28), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 59), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2001–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £280,000 sits 69.7% above the 2013 sale of £165,000.
