Overview

About Winchcombe

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

Winchcombe is a five-bedroom detached house in Yielden, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 1AT). It has a recorded floor area of 285 m² (around 3068 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since August 2006, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. At 285 m² the property is well over the postcode median (192 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £803,000 sits 91.2% above the 2006 sale of £420,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£137/sq ft) was about 35.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 Winchcombe is modelled from its 285 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in MK44 1AT. 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 Winchcombe. 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 Winchcombe was lodged in April 2013 at band D and expired in April 2023, 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 Winchcombe. 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. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from MK44 1AT. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Winchcombe is in council tax band G. 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.
