About 81 Wootton Road

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

81 Wootton Road is a semi-detached house in Kempston, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 9BJ). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1078 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from May 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
