Overview

About 7 The Chase

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

7 The Chase is a detached house in Kempston, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 9HN). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (June 2010) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from June 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since July 2001 — that's 25 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 £482,000 sits 178.6% above the 2001 sale of £173,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£138/sq ft) was about 27.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 116 m² it's 15.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (138 m² median across 10 EPCs).

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 7 The Chase is modelled from its 116 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in MK43 9HN. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 7 The Chase. 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 7 The Chase was lodged in June 2010 at band D and expired in June 2020, 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. 1 application is matched to 7 The Chase. 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 9HN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
7 The Chase is in council tax band F. 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.
