About Long Acre
Long Acre is a detached house in Keysoe, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 2JD). It has a recorded floor area of 167 m² (around 1798 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 167 m² it sits well below the postcode median (257 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015.
