Overview

About 1 Bourne End Lane

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

1 Bourne End Lane is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Bletsoe, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 1QP). It has a recorded floor area of 143 m² (around 1540 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2011) shows an F (score 28), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 39). Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from July 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 143 m² the property is well over the postcode median (86 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Across 2003–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £408,000 sits 51.1% above the 2011 sale of £270,000. Last sold in December 2011, so it's been off the market for around 15 years.

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 1 Bourne End Lane is modelled from its 143 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in MK44 1QP. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 1 Bourne End Lane. 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 1 Bourne End Lane was lodged in July 2011 at band F and expired in July 2021, 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. None is matched to 1 Bourne End Lane. 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 3 schools and 26 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK44 1QP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Bourne End Lane is in council tax band D. 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.
