Overview

About 39 Wootton Road

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

39 Wootton Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Kempston, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 9BH). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1997–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.6% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£368/sq ft) was about 71.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 101 m² it's 24.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (134 m² median across 14 EPCs). Sold January 2022 for £400,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
