Overview

About 9 Chestnut Avenue

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

9 Chestnut Avenue is an end-of-terrace house in Bromham, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 8HP). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in August 2015 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88). The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since February 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £319,000 sits 246.9% above the 1999 sale of £91,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£120/sq ft) was about 45.4% below the postcode norm. At 71 m² it's 26.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (97 m² median across 12 EPCs).
