Overview

About 27 Wootton Road

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

27 Wootton Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Kempston, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 9BH). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows a G (score 5), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 61), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views and attached land beyond the plot. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a corner plot and a cul-de-sac position.

At 58 m² it sits well below the postcode median (134 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2007–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 1.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £367,000 is 31.1% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£448/sq ft) was about 110.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in July 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 27 Wootton Road is modelled from its 58 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in MK43 9BH. 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 27 Wootton Road. 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 27 Wootton Road was lodged in December 2013 at band G and expired in December 2023, 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. 4 applications are matched to 27 Wootton Road. 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 10 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK43 9BH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
27 Wootton Road is in council tax band D. 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.
