Overview

About 10 Chestnut Avenue

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

10 Chestnut Avenue is a four-bedroom detached house in Bromham, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 8HP). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Most recent transfer: October 2018 at £550,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 118 m² it's 29.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (91 m² median across 12 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs).
