About 9 Eastwood Cottages

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

9 Eastwood Cottages is an end-of-terrace house in Kempston Hardwick, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 9NS). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B.
