Overview

About 18 Bedford Road

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

18 Bedford Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Roxton, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 3DX). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, lighting went from Average to Good and main heating went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 95 m² the property is well over the postcode median (70 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1998–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £329,000 sits 88% above the 2012 sale of £175,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£171/sq ft) was about 23.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in July 2012 and unlisted since — roughly 14 years.
