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 (74 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 £427,000 sits 58.1% above the 2011 sale of £270,000. Last sold in December 2011, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
