Overview

About 3 Maple Gardens

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

3 Maple Gardens is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Riseley, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 1DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2013. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
