Overview

About 1 Chapel Lane

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

1 Chapel Lane is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Ravensden, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 2RB). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

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 Chapel Lane is modelled from its 120 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in MK44 2RB. 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 1 Chapel 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 Chapel Lane was lodged in June 2016 at band F and expired in June 2026, 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 Chapel 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 10 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK44 2RB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
