Overview

About The Hedges

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

The Hedges is a two-bedroom detached house in Bolnhurst, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 2EX). It has a recorded floor area of 39 m² (around 423 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include notable views. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 45). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

7 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Most recent transfer: October 2019 at £211,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 1995–2019, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £271,000 is 28.4% above the 2019 sale price.
