Local market context
12 14 is a six-bedroom semi-detached house in Wootton, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 9JT). It has a recorded floor area of 157 m² (around 1690 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (July 2017) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include outbuildings. Period features are noted in the property record.
Held since August 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 157 m² the property is well over the postcode median (97 m² across 45 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £626,000 sits 103.9% above the 2007 sale of £307,000. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
