Overview

About 2 Church End

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

2 Church End is a five-bedroom detached house in Thurleigh, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 2DA). It has a recorded floor area of 252 m² (around 2713 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The property has an EV charger on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include outbuildings. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (July 2024) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (September 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63). Main heating runs on oil.

Untraded for 26 years, with the last transfer in November 2000. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 252 m² the property is well over the postcode median (140 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £709,000 sits 609% above the 2000 sale of £100,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£37/sq ft) was about 81.6% below the postcode norm. 5 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, partial demolition, a loft conversion and a garage conversion, 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 2 Church End is modelled from its 252 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in MK44 2DA. 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 2 Church End. 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 2 Church End was lodged in July 2024 at band E and is valid until July 2034. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 5 applications are matched to 2 Church End. 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 1 school and 6 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK44 2DA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
2 Church End is in council tax band A. 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.
