About 7 Wootton Road
7 Wootton Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Kempston, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 9BH). It has a recorded floor area of 153 m² (around 1642 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 153 m² it's 25.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (122 m² median across 14 EPCs). Across 1998–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £495,000 is 41.4% above the 2009 sale price.
